What Is MIM All About

Considering a Masters in Management (MiM)?
Here are some insights based on the experiences of recent graduates:

1.Popularity: It’s highly popular in Europe and Asia, but not as much in the US.

2. Curriculum: Vast range of core modules are taught that gives you enough knowledge to network efficiently with people from different industries. Atleast 40% of the curriculum depends on your choice of electives, hence you can specialise in the area of your interest through these.

3. Career Prospects: Management consulting tops the list, but MiM opens doors to finance, business analytics, marketing, and more. The not-so-intense schedule gives you time to network, secure referrals, and job hunt. Many job opportunities open in early November for the following August start date.

4. Top Universities: Consider institutions like HEC, LBS, Imperial, ESSEC, ESCP, IE, ESADE, NUS, SMU, Bocconi, and more. Your choice should align with your goals, language preferences, and cultural fit.

5. Variations Matter: Many universities offer MiM in different flavors such as Masters in International Management, Economics and Strategy for Business, and Strategic Management. Be critical when choosing; review recent intake’s class profiles, placements, and alumni feedback. They might seem too similar on the face of it but applying to the wrong course at the right university can significantly impact your admission chances.
