Editor's Notes

  • #3 Icons stand for: Finance, HRM, Sales, Business Development, Marketing and IT. Mention we educate our students in SAP a worldwide known ERP system!
  • #4 Why chose our programme over a Bachelor’s programme at the research university.
  • #6 So...how does it look?
  • #7 How much time will it cost me?
  • #8 More than 110 partner universities across the globe. Works with a ranking system, the higher your grades in the first year, the higher the chance you are able to go to the most popular universities. For instance: we only have 2 spots available for the entire IBS in Miami every semester.
  • #10 And with our companies of course. IBAB: onderwijsadviesraad Global Corporate Council: network internship companies
  • #11 Students have to combine the graduation research paper with field based learning
  • #12 After graduation you will be a skilled international business professional Will have a developed a global mindset have experience working for an international organisation have already built up a global network during your studies will be ready to fulfil an international function at junior management level in the business-to-consumer or business-to-business sector. And recent research showed that: employees working for an international company earn on average 30% more than employees at similar Dutch companies;
  • #13 Note: this research only involves alumni from the 4 year programme. N= 547 Survey amongst IBMS alumni who graduated in 2008 or later. IBMS alumni do not seem to have trouble in finding a job. Almost half of the responding alumni already had found a job at the moment of graduation and more than 80% of the alumni had a job within 6 months after graduation. This reflects the employability of alumni that graduated between 2008 and 2014, in other words, in a period of economic downfall.
  • #14 This figure illustrates that the average alumnus start working with a gross income of approx 2200 euros, the balance of monthly start salaries was between 1800 – 2600 euros. More than 40% of the alumni earned more than 3600 euros at the time of the survey. (note: all alumni graduated after 2008)
  • #15 NL requires a GMAT to enter Master programme IBMS survey: national survey, 6 participating universities of applied sciences N= 547. National: 45,9% continues, HvA: 45,5%.
  • #19 On average 40% of the registrants does not enrol due to either other choice or not passing the high school exams. HAVO GPA 8 or higher has guaranteed placement
