Dear Guys,

I am planning for a full time MBA program in Germany in 2016 (either January or March). i am looking for a well known university with international accreditation such as WHU, ESMT, CBS, EBS, MANN, etc. I am a non-EU citizen and i dont speak German but i am planning to learn it during my MBA program.

I was looking for my options for Jan/March starting date but most of them they start only in September/October. Does anyone know any other high rank university that has an a summer term.


Thanks.

The number of top programmes in German is small. WHU or ESMT is your best bet if you want to start in January.

I should also mention Rotterdam, which is not in Germany but has been a major destination for German students and recruiters over the last 40 years or so.

PS You won't be able to learn German to a professional level during your MBA. See Do you need to speak the local language? www.find-mba.com/board/34713

i am sure a professional level wont be achieved in one year however, an intermediate level would be possible. But is it possible to find a job with that level ? and how long can anyone stay in Germany after graduation. I heard the German government would give one year only after graduation for non-EU citizens to stay in the country and look for a job. is that right ?

btw what about the cologne business shcool ? is it a high rank university in Germany ?

What work could you do with intermediate German? Work in a coffee shop?

No, CBS isn't a high ranking MBA school.

haha i mean working in an international company where english is the main spoken language. but dont know if there are alot in germany.
what about the visa matter ? how long i can stay after graduation looking for job ?

Lots of discussion here already on the work permit issue. It's fair to say that it is not an issue if you find work laid over the national average.

I don't see what sort of firm in Germany would not have German as a working language. You would have to be an experienced investment banker, I guess. I can't see those people being hired out of German MBAs.
