Established in 1964, Stellenbosch Business School was the first business school from an African university to receive the prestigious Triple Crown of international accreditations, an achievement reserved for the top 1% of business schools worldwide. The school focuses on postgraduate education, offering programmes that include PG-Dip, specialist master’s degrees, MBA, and PhD, alongside short courses delivered through its executive development arm. Many of these programmes integrate a responsible leadership dimension, reflecting the school’s commitment to developing responsible leaders for a better world—a key differentiator across its programmes, research, and social impact activities. The school hosts six research centres with expertise in Development Finance, Governance, Women and Work, Futures & Foresight, Conflict & Collaboration, and Responsible Leadership. It also has a strong pedigree in entrepreneurship, serving as the host of the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor for South Africa and running its own Small Business Academy that supports entrepreneurs in informal settlements across three provinces. Stellenbosch Business School is a member of PRME and participates in several global alliances of leading business schools, including the Council on Business & Society, the EMBA Consortium, and the Global Innovation Challenge.
