As a Mannheim Business School graduate, I decided to continue my doctoral studies at GESS because of its strong research culture, international reputation and stimulating academic environment.

I would choose Mannheim Business School again at any time. Through attending conferences and undertaking research stays abroad, I was able to expand my academic network in a targeted way. Thanks to the excellent research environment and the strong support from the faculty, I was also able to further develop and deepen my research interests.

I chose the Business School of the University of Mannheim because of its consistent top rank and its high research quality in the Germany and all over the world. Also, I found my expertise and interests completely match to the chair’s research works.
