EFMD Reaccreditation for TSM’s Master’s in Finance and Doctoral Programme

TSM – Toulouse School of Management, a constituent part of the Toulouse Capitole University, has once again confirmed the quality and excellence of its international degree programmes. In May 2026, TSM’s Master’s in Finance and Doctoral Programme received EFMD reaccreditation for the maximum term of five years.
Awarded by the European Foundation for Management Development (EFMD), this international accreditation is one of the most rigorous and widely recognised in the fields of management and higher education.

This distinction highlights the academic rigor, scientific excellence, and international focus of the programmes offered at TSM.
 

EFMD Accreditation: An internationally recognised mark of excellence

EFMD accreditation is based on a particularly thorough evaluation process. It assesses all aspects of a programme: the academic and institutional environment, teaching quality, organisation, impact, employability, internationalisation, research output, and quality assurance systems.

Recognised worldwide by students, employers, and the media, EFMD is the leading accreditation body for business and management schools.

Awarded following a rigorous review and audit process conducted by professionals in higher education and management, this accreditation highlights a programme’s academic excellence, practical relevance, international outlook, ethics, and social responsibility.
 

A rare distinction for TSM's Master's in Finance

With this reaccreditation, TSM’s Master’s in Finance retains its place among a very select group of internationally recognised programmes. Today, only about ten Master’s programs in finance worldwide hold EFMD accreditation.

This recognition highlights the academic quality of the program, its alignment with current market needs, and its strong international focus.

 

Major international recognition for TSM's Doctoral Programme

TSM’s doctoral programme has also been reaccredited by EFMD for the maximum term of five years, an exceptional achievement at this level of education.

To date, only two doctoral programmes worldwide are EFMD-accredited.

This distinction highlights TSM’s ability to train high-caliber researchers and faculty members who are capable of conducting rigorous research while understanding current management challenges.

The programme benefits from a stimulating academic environment, rigorous supervision, and an international network that fosters the development of doctoral students’ research skills. 

 

TSM reaffirms its global presence

Through these reaccreditations, TSM reaffirms its position as a leading academic institution in management, finance, and research. By securing reaccreditation for its Master’s in Finance and Doctoral Programme, the school demonstrates its ability to offer programmes of excellence that meet the highest international standards.
