Teaching & Learning

In order to ensure the transfer of learning and enable students to further develop competencies leading to clear profiles for their future careers, the MCI has formulated detailed learning goals.

Accreditation & Memberships

As one of a few universities in the German-speaking area, MCI earned accreditation by the prestigious AACSB Association. AACSB accreditation is a sign of excellent quality on all levels of business education.

Surveys & Rankings

International surveys and rankings provide for objectivity and transparency and as such are a source of orientation on today’s increasingly complex higher education market.

Quality Management

The MCI’s process-oriented quality management system relates to the quality goals and parameters defined in its Mission Statement & Success Factors.

It guarantees fulfillment of a legal requirement to implement quality management as a central steering tool on the one hand and to achieve the university’s quality goals as defined in its mission statement on the other. Due account is also taken of European standards, external accreditation requirements and the results of polls and rankings.

The inclusion of all relevant stakeholders, process orientation and a commitment to continuous improvement are key principles for the implementation and further development of the MCI’s quality assurance concept in accordance with European and international standards.
