CEMS is a global alliance where 33 leading business schools and over 70 companies and NGOs do something no one else does at this scale: they build and deliver a master's programme together.
One shared curriculum. One joint degree. Across six continents.
Students study at two or more schools, across borders, work on challenges set by real companies, and join a community that stays with them long after graduation. 22,800+ alumni still call themselves CEMSies - and still mean it.
Founded in 1988 on the belief that working together beats competing apart, CEMS has always been a bridge: between academia and industry, between cultures, between who you are when you enter and who you become when you leave.
The impact, in practice
• #4 worldwide (QS Master in Management 2026)
• 98% of CEMS graduates recommend the CEMS experience
• 95% have worked outside their home country
