A lot of great options in Germany, from accredited schools like ESMT, Mannheim Business School, WHU, HHL, etc. etc. etc.

All the IGC programs are accredited!
According to their Website they have the curricula accredited by an external accreditation agencies (ZEvA, AQAS, AACSB*). The Central Evaluating Agency (ZEvA) is part of the European Network of Quality Assurance in Higher Education (ENQA). All master (MBA) degrees of the International Graduate Center are official degrees of a German public university. Therefore they are accepted by universities and governments in and outside of Europe.
*the AACSB accreditation applies to the corporate IBSA-Master programme from IGC and UNCW, USA.

A very small number of students at Bremen will get the UNCW MBA: surely it cannot be more than a handful each year. Certainly the UNCW does have meaningful accreditation.
The IGC qualification however lacks meaningful accreditation, which means AMBA, EQUIS or AACSB.

And I think that is what really matters when chosing a MBA.

I would like to add that even though the IGC programs do not have international accreditation, they still provide very good job perspectives. I know a lot of people who studied in Bremen and got a good job at international companies right afterwards.

However, will it be harder for you to find a job in another European country with an MBA that doesn't have international accreditation? Yes. The career resources and networking opportunities will not be as good as if you did your MBA at a ranked school like ESMT or Mannheim.
But if you wanted to work in another European country, you should probably study in that country. Labor markets are usually national.

Most people find work after any masters' programme. The point about Bremen is that it doesn't publish placement data, and it would if its outcomes were above average.
Hello Duncan,
My name is Erwin. I come from Indonesia. I am interested to enroll for double degree program (MBA + MSc) of IGC which collaborate with ESCCA France. In IGC's website, mentioned that IGC's MBA program has AACSB accreditation, whereas ESCCA's MSc program has triple accreditation (AACSB, EQUIS and AMBA). Kindly please share your opinion with me regarding that double degree program.
If I am going to develop my global career in higher education institution as the lecturer of master program (and off course it requires me to obtain doctoral degree as well), should I consider the master program with triple accreditation as well?.
Thank you very much for your attention.

AMBA has accredited only one programme at ESSCA, the MBM (https://www.mbaworld.com/en/business-schools/business-school-search/business-school-detail/france-essca). EPAS accreditation applies only to its Grande Ecole programme.
PS If you want to do a PhD, I suggest that you instead take a masters that is more focussed on research. Here are some European suggestions: https://busimod.com/2jWY7F5 Of course if would be ideal if you studied somewhere that has a PhD programme (which IGC and ESSCA cannot do). That is where you would find research-active staff who would be able to help you identify strong PhD options. Leuven, NHH, Antwerp, WU, Kozminski, Lausanne and Hohenheim stand out to me.

I have been selected for an International MBA at IGC Bremen, wherein got an information that I can be admitted to UNCW for specialization...
I know ESMT, Mannheim, etc are recognized universities, however they are far beyond my budget. How about HWR Berlin? How about a Full-time MBA from HWR Berlin? Can you please suggest which would be a better choice? Further, what would be the scope if I come back to India after completing MBA from IGC & UNCW? Will I get a good job because I shall be taking educational loan.
Request you to kindly help as I am really confused.
Thanks & Regards,
Sonal

The form of words 'can be selected' seems very ambiguous to me. I can be selected for the Olympic team, but I probably won't be. If you don't have a guaranteed seat at UNCW, where I imagine UNC will wants people with strong finance skills, then Bremen is a worse choice than a free MSc from a state university.

Can you please confirm which would be a good choice? IGC or HWR Berlin? And if I am getting specialization at UNCW, should I proceed with the admission formalities?
Thanks for a last & quick update.

If you speak German, why on earth are you not taking an MSc in BWL?
