Upon completion, you will receive both your bachelor's degree and a pre-master's certificate with direct access to business master's programs at partners such as Nyenrode Business Universiteit, UvA, EUR, and Maastricht University. **Interested?** View all details about the program, admission requirements, curriculum, and application procedure on [the SBM programme page](). ### Why this premaster? - You can earn your academic Master of Science title in just one year after graduating from the pre-master’s track, thus saving you one year! - In-depth theoretical knowledge on business-related issues as well as academic skills in research and report writing - International classroom consisting of super motivated students, and access to a support team and an individual tutor.
