GBSM Master Study Club

The Master Study Club of Global Business and Stakeholder Management organises activities specifically for the students of this programme. These activities provide the opportunity to socialise, get to know the faculty outside the classroom, network with businesses for future internships or career opportunities, and acquire new skills. 

Events organised include: the Master’s Introduction Days, monthly social gatherings (including an alumni event), company visits, master classes and a Global Business and Stakeholder Management conference, during which speakers from all spheres of society – businesses, NGOs and governmental bodies – convene at RSM. 

Other GBSM Events 

In addition to the activities organised by the Master Study Club, the Department of Business and Society Management encourages students to host their own events. In 2006, this resulted in the Erasmus Next Top Idea Evening, a study-trip to Brussels, an elections debate, an application and CV training workshop, a workshop on Al Gore’s movie, the launch of the World Investment Report, the ‘CSR Entrepreneurs’ meeting (in which a large number of alumni show how they ‘walk the talk’ in CSR), other book launches and methodology workshops and the creation of a GBSM year book. 

Each year, we organise alumni events with visits from interesting speakers, and social drinks with your professors and alumni of GBSM. This event is fun and a great opportunity for networking and learning about the wide array of jobs open to you as a GBSM graduate.
