What Alumni Are Saying

Rotterdam School of Management is an exception program because not only do the professors bring exceptional teaching, each student brings international experience and industry expertise to the classroom.

Great opportunity to experience something atypical, innovative not only at school, but also in the unique country, the Netherlands!

For me it was very important to be in learning environment not only in the classroom. When it comes to sustainability and innovation, The Netherlands has a lot to offer as a country and there is a lot I was able to learn from the country, culture, and system.
