I got admitted to GSO-MI MBA program in Germany with a scholarship. I have researched and contacted one of the Alumni as well. He is satisfied with the program and currently doing a job in Dusseldorf. Can any please please tell me any feedback if you have for this MBA program? I am kind of confused with its reputation as I saw some mixed responses on this website only. Any information will be valuable... Best Regards..

Some friends of mine had their wedding reception there. The German Fachhochschule like the Ohm school are at a lower level of standing in German society. I do think that's a disadvantage with blue-chip, international employers in consulting and finance. Of course, not everyone wants that. If you're interesting in working in Bavaria, in industrial or technology companies, then it's fine.

Thu Dec 08, 2011 02:58 PM I generally agree with Duncan - an MBA from Georg Simon might give you some employment advantages regionally, but the school doesn't have any framework for or placement relationships with larger or international employers. If you're interested in schools in Germany, I'd urge you to check out this article to see what some of the other offerings are: www.find-mba.com/article/279/mba-programs-in-germa… I'd also encourage you to look at schools that have international accreditation, as this is a sign that the school has a decent curriculum and will be recognized by potential employers. Here are some in Germany to get you started: EBS Manheim WHU Cologne Business School

Surely you mean the FT-ranked University of Cologne, Faculty of Management rankings.ft.com/businessschoolrankings/university-… I think higher up the list should be HHL and GISMA.
