Osnabrück University receives coveted EFMD accreditation!

Great joy at Osnabrück University of Applied Sciences: The Bachelor's degree program in International Management has been awarded the prestigious EFMD program accreditation. This accreditation is not only a seal of quality, but also recognizes the high quality of teaching and the international orientation of the course. Ethics and sustainability are also taken into account as important aspects. OS Radio reports that only 145 study programs in the field of business and management worldwide have received this award.

What is particularly worth mentioning is that the International Management course in Germany is one of the few that can be awarded this mark of excellence. In addition to Osnabrück, there are only three other bachelor's programs that bear the seal of quality. In Lower Saxony, the course is the only one to have achieved this renowned accreditation.

Accreditation as quality assurance

But what does such accreditation actually mean? Accreditation in higher education serves as an external quality assurance instrument carried out by independent agencies and experts. This is confirmed by HS Heilbronn, where the quality of the study programs is regularly checked. In the Faculty of International Business, all degree programs are program accredited. The Accreditation Council's quality seal is awarded at national level and underlines the high standards and academic demands of the training.

The accreditation system in Germany has been continuously developed since the introduction of the Bologna Process in 1999. Its aim is to create a European Higher Education Area, which is also explained by the Bildungsserver. The accreditation process assesses the quality of the degree programs and ensures that standards are continuously maintained and improved.

A step into the future

The Osnabrück University of Applied Sciences' award is not only a moment of pride, but also a commitment to continuous improvement. Professor Ronald Moeder, dean of studies at the faculty, emphasizes that the EFMD accreditation represents a form of self-commitment to remain at the top international level. Continuous development is part of the plan to successfully master future challenges in teaching and studying.

Overall, it shows that good training is more in vogue than ever. The future prospects for the graduates are extremely promising thanks to the targeted promotion of ethics, international standards and practical relevance. The Osnabrück University of Applied Sciences is taking an important step in the right direction and is setting new standards for training in the field of management.
