During the crisis, MCI offers ideal training opportunities for managers and young professionals to optimise their personal portfolio. The focus is on management, leadership, digitalisation, business models and innovation. The first-class feedback from the recently published MCI alumni survey confirms that academic further education at the Entrepreneurial School significantly advances professional development and opens up new opportunities. For, as the latest survey shows, 24.1% of the now alumni were in middle management at the start of their further education, while the average figure has risen to 41.1% to date.

Andreas Altmann, Rector at the MCI, emphasises: "The crisis presents us with unprecedented challenges. The MCI is a leader in the fields of technology, research, innovation and digitalisation and integratively links this with leadership and management issues to create exciting business models. This provides the best conditions for leaders to act competently in the economy of tomorrow. We are delighted that our alumni confirm in the current Alumni Survey that further education at the MCI is the ideal way to be successful in the professional world".

Susanne E. Herzog, Head of MCI Executive Education, adds: "The MCI's Executive Master's programs provide decision-makers at all management levels with the latest specialist and leadership knowledge. We place particular emphasis on practical transfer and direct applicability in the professional environment. The remarkable career leaps of our graduates confirm this. The outstanding evaluations show us that our offer is exceptionally well received by managers and junior managers in practice."
