Events
RSM hosts a variety of events each year for current and potential students, academics, alumni, and other internal and external participants. Some significant yearly events include:
Corporate and Alumni Events: The Corporate & Alumni Relations office presents an ongoing series of events that bring highly-placed business leaders, RSM academics, and alumni together. These events include Journeys With Erasmus, an annual Leadership Summit, Alumni Day, reunions and conferences.
Executive Education & Organisational Development Events: Executive Education & Organisational Development hosts regular events for the HR and Learning & Development Communities. These include quarterly HR Networking Events which feature industry and academic speakers on contemporary topics, an HR Summit for senior practitioners and the annual EEOD Open Day.
Academic Events: In conjunction with the Erasmus Research Institute of Management (ERIM) RSM organises academic symposia, awards ceremonies and other events.
Career and Recruitment Events: MBA and MSc recruitment events are particularly important aspects of RSM’s programmes. Each fall includes the Annual Careers Fair for MBAs; each October STAR (Study Association Rotterdam School of Management, Erasmus University) organises STAR Management Week for Masters students. These events bring pre- and post-experience programme participants in touch with recruiters and corporate partners.
I WILL In October 2009, RSM created a social movement called I WILL. IWILL acts as a platform for the individuals at RSM, whether it be students, staff, faculty, alumni, or friends of the school, to share their vision for the future with the school community and even begin working towards it.

Famous quotes containing the word events:
“The phenomenon of nature is more splendid than the daily events of nature, certainly, so then the twentieth century is splendid.”
—Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
“We have defined a story as a narrative of events arranged in their time-sequence. A plot is also a narrative of events, the emphasis falling on causality. “The king died and then the queen died” is a story. “The king died, and then the queen died of grief” is a plot. The time sequence is preserved, but the sense of causality overshadows it.”
—E.M. (Edward Morgan)
“Individuality is founded in feeling; and the recesses of feeling, the darker, blinder strata of character, are the only places in the world in which we catch real fact in the making, and directly perceive how events happen, and how work is actually done.”
—William James (1842–1910)
