IMD’s 2017 MBA class receives over half a million CHF in scholarships

Awards for highly qualified and ambitious leaders
February 2017

Scholarships play an important role in supporting IMD’s already diverse MBA pool. There are roughly 10 different categories of IMD scholarships ranging from completely merit based awards to those awarded exclusively for emerging markets. In any given year, typically 25% of all IMD MBA students receive financial awards in the form of scholarships. We congratulate the 2017 award recipients.
