Rochester-Bern Executive Programs

Rochester-Bern Executive Programs is a Swiss foundation promoting postgraduate education in the area of business administration. The foundation is affiliated with two universities, its parent institution, the Simon Business School at the University of Rochester, on the one hand, and the Universität Bern, where it is headquartered, on the other hand.

When founded in 1994, the foundation offered the first U.S. MBA degree in Switzerland for its Executive MBA. Today, Rochester-Bern organizes a variety of educational programs for both individuals and companies, who are awarded degrees from either one or both of the partner universities. Rochester-Bern Executive Programs is financially self-supporting. Members of the foundation board are both business leaders and academics.
