Cooperation with the Business Community
SSE was founded in 1909 on the initiative of Swedish business leaders, and the School has maintained close ties with the business community ever since. Many firms are eagerly waiting for the opportunity to participate in SSE's partnership programs, and SSE has no difficulty in recruiting business leaders for its Board of Directors.
International Networks
SSE has earned a reputation for excellence, both here in Sweden and around the world. The School collaborates with several leading institutions of higher education around the world. In 1999, SSE became the first Swedish university to be fully accredited by
EQUIS (
The European Quality Improvement System). This means that our teaching and research in all fields have been found to meet the most rigorous international criteria.
SSE is the Swedish member institution of
CEMS (
The Community of European Management Schools). Only one business school in any given country is admitted to CEMS, through which Europe's seventeen leading business schools and approximately sixty multinational corporations collaborate.
SSE is also the only Nordic representative in
ICEDR (
International Consortium for Executive Development Research), a society comprising the 25 foremost business schools (Harvard University, MIT, Wharton, among others) of business and 40 of the leading corporations (ABB, Deutsche Bank, Unilever, Ericsson to mention a few) in the world.
