Netherlands: Rotterdam School of Management

Rotterdam School of Management at Erasmus University (RSM) consistently ranks among the top ten business schools in Europe. As an exchange student, you will enroll in classes in the BSc program in International Business Administration. The program includes students from over 80 nationalities, 60% of whom have an international background.

Rotterdam is a cosmopolitan city, with a population of around 1.4 million. It is located about an hour’s train ride from both Amsterdam and Antwerp. The city’s remarkable transportation infrastructure makes it easy to get around by bike, train, tram or underground. It is also easy to get around with limited Dutch language skills, as most people in Rotterdam speak English.

After being heavily bombed during World War II, the city rebuilt with a very modern twist on architecture. Rotterdam is now known as a diverse, modern city with abundant cultural opportunities including museums, dance, an international film festival and a music hall.
