Full purpose
De kernopdracht van de School bestaat erin om het onderwijs en het onderzoek rond management en ondernemerschap op hoog niveau uit te bouwen en uit te dragen, en zo nuttige verbanden te leggen tussen de theorie en de praktijk, met het oog op een maximale wederkerige kruisbestuiving. In het kader van dat belangeloos doel heeft de School tot voorwerp: postinitieel onderwijs verschaffen aan pas afgestudeerden of praktijkmensen, mét inbegrip van de postacademische vorming; wetenschappelijk onderzoek en dienstverlening verrichten op het gebied van de managementwetenschappen, met inbegrip van de voorbereiding van doctoraatproefschriften met het oog op het behalen van een academische graad van doctor aan een Vlaamse of een buitenlandse universiteit.
