The results are in. WHU has made it to the first place in Germany in the renowned Financial Times European Business School Ranking 2023, achieving #16 in Europe. “The outstanding ranking results are a great appreciation of our efforts to promote thought leadership and to be among the leading European business schools,” states Professor Christian Andres, Dean of WHU. This excellent overall score is the result of WHU’s placements in various other rankings published this year by the Financial Times, where the school is continuously ranked among the best programs in Europe. @financialtimes #myWHU #excellence #ranking #financialtimes #businessschool #studentlife #campuslife #campusvallendar #vallendar #campusdüsseldorf #düsseldorf #germany https://www.instagram.com/p/C0bO-jxN8JZ/

Last week, we celebrated 20 Years of WHU First Responder. For two decades, the student-led initiative has been acting as a lifeline in Vallendar, which does not have its own emergency medical service center. To bridge the time until an ambulance from the surrounding town arrives on the scene, the collective of students has been trained to provide critical support by checking vitals, ensuring oxygen flow, or even resuscitating someone. The initiative was brought to life by Michael Peters (D 2006) and Hendrik Thörner (D 2006). They reunited at the celebration with former Dean Professor Klaus Brockhoff, who supported them in building a strong foundation for the initiative. Congratulations on this tremendous milestone! @whu_firstresponder! #myWHU #businessschool #firstresponder #firstaid #commitment #studentinitiative #studentlife #campuslife #campusvallendar #vallendar #germany https://www.instagram.com/p/C0TcQgntj_T/

Professor Emeritus Jürgen Weber made every one of his 34 years at WHU count. He contributed to more than 1,300 publications, served as Dean and Deputy Dean, and founded and directed several centers at WHU. Among them the Institute for Management Accounting and Control, which hosted a surprise ceremony to announce the school’s renaming of H-001, the largest lecture hall in Vallendar, as the “Jürgen Weber Auditorium,” in recognition of his substantial contributions. The event, attended by over 170 guests, included high-profile figures such as Henkel CEO Carsten Knobel, E.ON CFO Marc Spieker, and former head of the Federal Employment Agency Frank-Jürgen Weise. Thank you, Professor Emeritus Jürgen Weber, for everything you have done for this school. #mywhu #businessschool #globaleducation #leadership #diversityandinclusion #professionaldevelopment #studentlife #campuslife #campusvallendar #vallendar #germany https://www.instagram.com/p/C0OZGi_sOfq/
