The first cohort of graduates from the EMBA University of Hull, the 100% British business school in Cluj-Napoca, held their graduation ceremony on 10 October this year, in Cluj-Napoca. Hosted by Babes-Bolyai University, the event was streamed live on the Facebook page of the EMBA programme and on Banca Transilvania’s Twitter page. A similar ceremony took place on 12 July this year at the University of Hull, in the United Kingdom.  

The 20 graduates from Romania achieved the best results among all those now completing the EMBA University of Hull in the United Kingdom, Hong Kong, Singapore and Bahrain.

The programme ran for 2 years and comprised 12 modules, with classes held in Cluj-Napoca and Hull, taught by British faculty. Graduates receive an international diploma awarded by the University of Hull. EMBA graduates join a global alumni community of over 28,000 members from 150 countries.

The 100% British business school was launched in Cluj-Napoca in 2015 through a partnership between the University of Hull, Babes-Bolyai University, Banca Transilvania and Electrogrup. The programme is internationally accredited by the Association of MBAs and the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business.

Currently, more than 50 Romanian and international managers and entrepreneurs are studying at the EMBA University of Hull.
