Quality education
Our programs are internationally accredited by the AACSB (Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business), and our admission screening for prospective students is every bit as demanding as the standards we apply to our academic staff ­ all with the goal of putting the brightest of minds in touch with one another.

Our educational portfolio aims at providing supplemental management training as a complement to first-degree studies and job experience. Our professors are highly devoted individuals who are always glad to engage in mindsharing sessions outside of actual seminars. For maximum one-on-one interaction, admission is limited to a maximum of 60 students per program.

One of our major objectives is providing students with plenty of hands-on experience. Outings to actual companies, case studies and a high percentage of student involvement in consulting projects are some of the ways in which GISMA ensures that students get the inside track and are well prepared for real-world business.

International appeal
All courses at GISMA are taught in English, as the world’s foremost language for business and global communication. Our alumni come from as many as 40 different nations and are taught by professors of diverse cultural backgrounds. We maintain close academic ties with top business schools in the US, China, the Netherlands and Hungary. These are just some of the factors that have earned our Executive MBA program an excellent ranking by the Financial Times.

Our ongoing education programs for knowledge enhancement and career advancement are every bit as international as the corporate clientele we serve. With the corollary goal of sparking cross-cultural and interdisciplinary dialogue, these tailor-made courses bring people of various mindsets and cultural backgrounds together on a regular basis. In this way, participants expand their know-how and personal networks at the same time ­ a major benefit in the eyes of many of our corporate clients.
