In 2011 Pforzheim University´s Business School was accredited by the AACSB as one of only 10 universities in Germany. 2017 and 2022 the re-accreditation has proven that the institution is not only keeping its high standards but that striving for continuous improvement is the key to success in our uncertain times. This is not only confirmed by the employers of our alumni but also by current students, for whom the international AACSB accreditation was one of the reasons for choosing the MBA at the Pforzheim University.
Besides a general management education, the MBA International Management offers specialisations in the areas of Marketing, Finance & Accounting, Big Data & AI as well as Recent Developments in Management & Business Transformation and is characterised by permanent innovation and flexibility in accordance with the current needs of the global economy. This prepares our MBA students very well for their future careers and challenges of a constantly business world.

Meet some our alumni from Europe and see what they have to say about our MBA:

Paula Murmann, Poland, MBA Class of 2021 Energy Strategy Consultant, Accenture DACH, Germany
„In my current role, I work at the intersection of strategy consulting, energy transition and digitization. On a daily basis, I develop new strategies, business models and organizational structures, analyze markets, value chains as well as drive digitalization and innovation in companies. The MBA equipped me with the necessary strategic management, innovation and digital transformation skills. I gained experience in the management of consulting projects and had a chance to work in collaboration with a global consulting firm as part of a company project in the third semester.“

Kevin van den Boom, Germany, MBA Class of 2017, Project Lead Business Intelligence / Big Data at Daimler AG, Germany
“I chose the MBA because I wanted to do the next career step. Certainly, there are different options to do so, but for me a MBA study seemed to be the perfect fit. Hochschule Pforzheims very good reputation, combined with its extensive academic & professional network and the excellent price-performance ratio convinced me to choose this program. The MBA´s networking opportunities are very directly linked to my career success, as I got offered to write my thesis at Daimler´s business innovation lab at the end of my first semester. Apart of that, many of the people I met during the MBA shaped my mind set during very intense 1.5 years, which helps me in my job.”
