The 31st CEMS Annual Events

Welcome to Vienna!

The 31st CEMS Annual Events were a great success for WU. Professor Günter Stahl received his sixth CEMS Course of the Year Award (category: Global Management Practice) this year, and Phillip Nell, who has already received three awards, came in second this year for the CEMS Course of the Year Award in the category Global Strategic Management. Professor Clive Spash and WU researcher Viviana Asara were presented with the CEMS Outstanding Contribution Award for their interactive course on climate change. WU came in second in this year’s race for the title of CEMS School of the Year. WU won this title in 2015.

Founded in 1988, the CEMS network currently includes 32 international universities, 7 Social Partners (NGOs), and 70 Corporate Partners.

The global CEMS network spans from Sydney to Barcelona to Beijing. Over 15,000 CEMS alumni from 80 different nations are currently employed in 75 countries around the world.

The CEMS flagship Master in International Management/CEMS (MIM) program teaches management skills in an international context.

WU is one of the leading schools within the CEMS network and has received numerous awards for its teaching and administration.
