  • Are you wondering what it is like to study at the best German Business School? Arguably, WHU in Vallendar is the best private German Business School. This week, I was invited to the forumWHU, an annual conference held at the WHU Otto Beisheim School of Management. After giving a lecture on Professional Communication, I had the opportunity to talk to several students of the WHU Master program. They shared insights on what it is like to study at a business school and what makes studying at WHU special. WHU is one of the top feeders into management consulting firms such as McKinsey, BCG or Bain in Germany. Follow my business school lecture to see what a day in the life at a business school looks like with this vlog. WHU also offers lots of opportunities for international students who want to study abroad for an MBA or Master.

    Mal wieder ein super Video. Könntest Du mal über deinen Philosophie Bachelor sprechen? Wie hast du es geschafft zwei Studiengänge gleichzeit zu studieren und generell über die Wahl Philosophie. Wäre mal interessant abseits der Business-Themen.

      das hat og heinrich in einem seiner ersten videos mal erzählt. Philosophie war eher hausarbeitslastig und somit was für während des semesters. bwl hat er dann gegen ende des semesters intensiv mit altklausuren gelernt.
      ja ich bin hardcore fan

LG! Heinrich

      I am very disappointed to have found out that WHU imposses Covid vaccination on their students. This only shows how far behind they are on the knowledge of Science and how they follow governments propaganda rather than what real Science shows about natural immunity and the importante of strengthening the human immune system.
      They do not seem to have done research on the devastating side effects this wrongly called vaccines are having especially on younger people.
      Shame on you WHU.

    forumWHU!!! 💜 I won an essay competition at the forumWHU in 2007... Like you, I had studied at a public university and it had been the first time that I had stepped my foot into a private university... I was blown away by the energy, the enthusiastic students, the prominent guest speakers, etc. The 1st prize also really helped me for my career, since I got to know a famous professor who later helped me with a letter of recommendation... So WHU is a great place indeed!!! The WHU alumni really can rely on a network for life. PS: Slick video!

      @@rodrigobelinchon2982 Yes, I think there is a similarly stark difference between public and private schools in Germany, too. As I said, I was blown away by the vibrancy of WHU... It felt very different to my public university experience. Still, wherever you are you need to capitalize on the opportunities given to you. Thank you! 🙂 The award was so important to me because, as a consequence, I got to know a famous professor personally at forumWHU. I happened to have a copy of my master thesis in my bag, which I was able to give him when I got to know him, and he read it on his train ride back from the event... ✨

    Hi Heinrich! I would love your opinion on a question that I have; currently, I'm considering taking an Online MBA, but I'm having trouble deciding between WHU, Polimi SOM, and Bradford ( Polimi has the best world ranking among the others, but it seems to me that WHU has more excellent quality in Management Education). Sadly, WHU's online MBA is a very "young" program compared with others, so for a Working professional with 9 years of experience that aims to boost his career in International Supply Chain Management / Digital Transformation with an Online MBA, what would be your suggestion?

      I think that both are good business schools but which is better is dependent on each individual and their personal circumstances and preferences. I think that one should very carefully examine the course and find out as much as they can about each university and course. That way you could make a decision based off of the pros and cons of each one! :)

    MBA in Esslingen Hochschule shall not be underrated, typically attending over 20 different countries. It has a great mix of business school with the Industrial focus, much needed now as industry 4.0 and digitalization is driving a major transformation.

    Problem: du denkst du hast es in eine geile Uni geschafft, dann bist du das erste mal in einem internationalen Umfeld und alle waren in Top20 Unis. WHU findet sich in den hinteren Teilen von Rankings (wie Times Higher Education Ranking). Es ist immer ein scheiss Gefühl, wenn du Amis und Engländern erklären musst, dass du auch auf ner geilen Uni warst, wenn sie droppen, dass sie in Oxbridge, MIT, Harvard waren... dann schauen Sie auf Ranking-Seiten und finden deine Uni nicht. Damit wrikst du nich gerade glaubwürdig... credibility lost.
