The FT weighted three-year salary for Maastricht MSc International Business graduates is approximately US$81,000 — a standardised cross-school figure measured three years after graduation. The programme ranks #10 worldwide for value for money in the FT 2025 table, reflecting its low EU tuition against that salary. Maastricht does not publish its own graduate salary or named-employer report for the programme; the FT figures, including a 100% three-month employment rate, are the cross-school benchmark.
Graduates of the Maastricht University MiM report $81k on the Financial Times' weighted measure — pay about three years after graduation, not a starting salary. The employment rate within three months of graduation is 100%.
That places it #37 of 51 programs we track on graduate salary, below the cohort median.

Frequently asked questions
Where does Maastricht University rank for the Master in Management?
Maastricht's School of Business and Economics places its MSc International Business 65th worldwide in the Financial Times Masters in Management 2025 — 1st in the Netherlands and 10th globally for value for money. The FT records a weighted three-year salary of approximately US$81,000 and a 100% employment rate at three months.
What is Problem-Based Learning at Maastricht?
Problem-Based Learning (PBL) is Maastricht's signature teaching model — students work in small tutorial groups on real business problems rather than sitting through large lectures, developing analytical and collaboration skills directly. It is applied across the MSc International Business and is a major reason the programme reports strong graduate employability.

- MSc International Business — tuition fees (statutory & institutional). Re-read at source 2026-09-03 and the figures confirmed exactly: academic year 2025/26 statutory €2,601 and institutional €21,400; academic year 2026/27 statutory €2,694 and institutional €21,500; part-time not applicable in either year. INTAKE LABEL CHECKED: those are the only two years published — there is NO 2027/28 schedule — so 2026/27 is the latest Maastricht publishes and it prices the year before the intake this profile's rounds admit to. The stored non-EU figure was carried as ~€21,500 and is exactly €21,500, so the approximation has been dropped.

- Maastricht University — English language requirement SBE. ENGLISH EVIDENCE ATTEMPTED 2026-09-06 (P33c, Dutch leg) and RECORDED AS A NEGATIVE, with the family named rather than guessed. The page opens with a browser user agent (HTTP 200; the central /support/your-studies-begin/admission-registration/language-requirements path 403s to both WebFetch and browser-UA curl), but everything it opens with is this, verbatim and in full: 'Since this (pre-)master's programme is taught in English, you must have a thorough verbal and written command of English. We accept TOEFL and IELTS tests as proof of your English proficiency. Please note that you have to prepare and register for these exams yourself. Answer the questions below to find out if you meet the language requirements*' with the footnote '*only for SBE (pre-)master's programmes'. The rules themselves sit behind that questionnaire and are assembled in the browser — no thresholds, no country list, no medium-of-instruction clause and no exemption text is server-rendered anywhere on the page. This is the INTERACTIVE FORM APP family already recorded for KU Leuven's tuition-fee application-windows lookup, not the WAF family and not a moved URL. So Maastricht is the one Dutch school in this catalogue whose English exemption rule this site has NOT read, and nothing about it is asserted here. Aggregator summaries of a Board-of-Admissions medium-of-instruction discretion exist; none of them is the school, and none is used ↗ — Maastricht University
