“We’ve said that RSM is a different business school that makes a difference. It’s true. RSM is a diverse community of international students, faculty, researchers, alumni, business leaders and staff with one unifying commitment: to make business, and business education, an instrument of positive change in the world.
“To sustain this vision of the future, our alumni have been asking us to start another type of community initiative: an annual fund. We’ve done it. The RSM Annual Fund ensures that the most talented, promising, and creative young leaders of the future will be part of the RSM community through our scholarship programme. The Fund will also provide support for relevant, high-quality management research that will help create the future of business.
For the initial launch year ending December 2010, we are aiming to reach a total target of €125,000 with the goal of having contributions sufficient to give out for:
Five €10,000 scholarships to MBA students
Five €10,000 scholarships to MSc students
€ 25,000 for activities to stimulate research with high managerial impact
To stimulate our alumni to give back, I have personally donated €1000 to this annual fund. I’m urging alumni to make the commitment: I WILL GIVE BACK.” George S. Yip, Dean & Professor, Rotterdam School of Management.
