Rochester-Bern Executive Programs

In 1994, the Simon School at the University of Rochester was the first business school to offer a U.S. MBA degree for executives in Switzerland. In cooperation with the Universität Bern, they founded Rochester-Bern Executive Programs, which is run through a foundation and is financially self-supporting. Foundation board members are business leaders or academics and have no financial stakes in the program.

The Simon School at the University of Rochester is accredited by AACSB International since 1966. Financial Times ranks it number 3 in the world for finance and number 4 in managerial economics. Moreover, the Simon School is ranked the top private U.S. business school for return on investment (ROI) by Bloomberg BusinessWeek.

In times of continuous change, managers need an integrated approach to thinking about management problems and a thorough understanding of the cross-functional nature of business decisions. Rochester-Bern Executive Programs prepares its students to meet the challenges posed by today's corporate world.

"We'll change the way you think. - It is not a slogan, it is reality. The Rochester-Bern Executive MBA with its global approach teaches you how to think out of the box."
