08.08.2024

The Rector of Kozminski University, Professor Grzegorz Mazurek, has joined the Board of Trustees of the EFMD - a key organisation in the global world of business education. The organisation currently has more than 1,000 universities and 30,000 members from 92 countries, playing a central role in defining governance and research standards. Amongst other things, its mission is responsible for EQUIS accreditation - a consistent system of equation for the best universities and management and administration education programmes worldwide.

As a member of the EQUIS accreditation committee, Prof Mazurek contributes to the setting of international educational standards. His presence on the EFMD Board of Trustees strengthens the position of Kozminski University in the international academic community and supports the improvement of the quality of education in Poland.

Kozminski University received EQUIS accreditation in 1999 and has maintained it continuously to this day. This accreditation - together with the AACSB at AMBA - constitutes a 'triple crown', which has been achieved by less than 1% of business universities from around the world. Since its inception, the EFMD and the EQUIS accreditation itself have been pointing out the best directions in business university management, monitoring of learning outcomes and academic achievements, cooperation with the business environment, the international academic community, the local community and in caring for the fate of graduates. 

Prof Mazurek's appointment to the EFMD Board of Trustees is another extremely important element in the university's ongoing commitment to improving education and research. Prof. Grzegorz Mazurek emphasises the associated responsibility and direct impact on the quality of education worldwide.
