They successfully passed all selection stages and will begin their studies in the Executive MBA program on October 29. Welcome to the community!

This time, we received 23 applications for one scholarship spot. After carefully reviewing each one, we selected 16 managers for the final stage — interviews with MBA program directors.

According to Olena Zhiltsova, head of the Executive MBA program:

"All sixteen scholarship candidates invited to the final stage of the selection process are exceptionally strong. All are intellectual, ambitious, work on critical issues, represent Ukraine globally, and are social innovators. Therefore, making the final decision, even after thoroughly studying all projects and candidates' experiences, was not easy. However, I believe the School managed to choose projects for which the Executive MBA program will be a significant multiplier here and now, helping to make a new qualitative leap and maximize their impact on the environment."

The initiation of scholarships was a natural step for kmbs. The School's educational activities aim for modern managers to create a qualitatively different reality for themselves, their business, and Ukrainian society by acquiring a new type of thinking and developing leadership capabilities. To achieve a synergistic effect, this transformation must occur among representatives of various fields — business, culture, education, social and public institutions.

Eduard Maltsev, Deputy Dean of kmbs and head of the Presidents' MBA program, spoke about the key goal of the scholarship program:

"Scholarships stimulate the education of leaders and the development of institutions that have a significant impact on society. Scholarships are also important for the MBA learning process. Studying in the same classroom, business and non-governmental organization leaders begin to see a broader picture; better understand each other's issues; enrich themselves with approaches to operational management; and become acquainted with strategic management in different areas of activity."

The next selection for kmbs scholarships will take place in spring 2021. The business school will provide the winners with 75% of the tuition cost for the Executive MBA program.
