AccommodationMost students find it very hard to arrange housing
accommodation from outside the Netherlands. No prob-
lem, you can let Rotterdam Business School provide
a room for you in the international student dormitory
through its International Housing Office. The procedure
is simple: together with your admission letter you will
receive a reservation form for accommodation.
Please note that without a reservation, accommodation
cannot be guaranteed. It is very important, therefore,
that you return your signed reservation form before the
deadline mentioned in the form.Pre-Master coursesIf you do not meet all the entry requirements, you can
still qualify if you follow one of Rotterdam Business
School’s Pre-Master courses.
There are two Pre-Master courses:

degree in a business field who do not meet the GMAT
requirements and/or have an IELTS score of at least 6.5;

Bachelor degree in a non-business field and/or an
IELTS score of at least 6.0.
If you do meet all the requirements, but would still
like to be better prepared for the Master programme,
you are of course welcome to join the preparation
programme.
Successful completion of the Pre-Master course
entitles you to:
• exemption from the IELTS 7.0/ TOEFL iBT 100
requirements
• a Pre-Master course certificate;
• deduction of €1,250 on the Non-EU tuition fee of a
Master Programme at Rotterdam Business School.

the specialised Master programmes. The six-month
Pre-Master course starts twice a year, in February

programmes. The twelve-month Pre-Master course

Master in Finance and Accounting
Finance and accounting professionals play an increasingly
active role in modern businesses. Managerial decision-
making depends on professionals with a financial
background, who take into account behavioural aspects,
describe and analyse problems of choice and provide the
background and tools for razor-sharp analysis.
A degree in Finance and Accounting puts you right at the
heart of industrial change, where you will be able to fully
utilise your analytical skills.
This one-year, full-time Master programme is one of three
Master programmes offered by Rotterdam Business School.
The other two are Master in Logistics Management and
Master in Consultancy and Entrepreneurship.
Programme structure Rotterdam Business School’s Master programmes
are built on three pillars:
• Education consists of core, specialisation and
elective modules. You can to a large extent determine
your own course while developing all the necessary
knowledge, skills and competencies of a professional
in international business.
• Research is the focus of the final stage of our
programmes. You will complete your studies with a
thesis research project, which can revolve around
a theoretical subject or a project executed for an
existing organisation.
• Personal development is encouraged through a
system that invites you to set your own particular
study goals – and continually test those choices.
ElectivesElectives are specialisation modules from Rotterdam
Business School’s other two Master programmes.
Students add these modules to their regular
programme. This fits in with our belief that at this
level, students need to be able to look beyond the
boundaries of their field and develop interdisciplinary
competencies.
In the Master in Finance and Accounting, students can
choose from:
• Logistics Management electives: Lean Manufacturing
and Inventory Strategy, Sales and Operations
Planning, Successful Performance Management,
Collaboration in Supply Chains, Consequences
of Technology, Leading and Managing Logistics
Enterprises.
• Consultancy and Entrepreneurship electives:
Managing Risk, Strategic Management Consulting,
Entrepreneurial Challenge, Managing Performance,
Change Management, Consultancy Process.
Personal development programmeThe Master programmes at Rotterdam Business School
are known for their learning processes and focus on
competencies. In our specific competency development
model you are responsible to a large extent for
determining your individual learning objectives and
areas of development. Together with a development
coach and in various groups you will work on the
skills and competencies as defined in your personal
development plan.
Final thesisThe conclusion of the Master programme is your thesis
research project. Your thesis can be based on either
a theoretical research project or practical business
research for an outside organisation.
Career perspectivesGraduates of the Master in Finance and Accounting
perform successfully in such fields as:
• translating external developments into internal
business procedures;
• providing support for decisions on critical financial issues;
• analysing the financial performance of an organisation
as a whole as well as business units;
• implementing up-to-date costing systems and
allocating decision rights;
• developing conceptual frameworks for providing
accounting information to investors and creditors.

Rotterdam Business SchoolSchooling for business: education at Rotterdam Business School has always been driven by
the demands expressed by students and the international business community. Our wide
international network is the source of continuous innovation.
As a result, Rotterdam Business School’s population keeps growing, with students coming in
from all over the world. Up-to-date programmes and international possibilities are often
cited as major reasons for choosing Rotterdam Business School. Students feel that both the
curriculum and the diverse social environment give them a head start in their international
business careers.
Philosophy of learningStudent autonomy is key in Rotterdam Business School’s Master programmes. A significant
part of study time is spent on self-study. As a student in our programmes, you are encouraged
