Masters in Management (MIM) is a post-graduate program\u00a0for those who complete a one to two-year graduate level coursework in business management from a recognized institution. It is a program that is generally designed for students who want to take up leadership positions, and therefore attracts students from diverse academic disciplines. The program structure is very similar to programs like Masters in Business Administration (MBA),\u00a0Master of Arts in Management, and\u00a0Master of Science in Management (MSM).<\/p>\n

Masters in Management programs can sometimes be used as a precursor to an MBA.<\/p>\n

    Key differences in MIM and MBA<\/strong><\/p>\n

    The first clear difference is that MIMs are specialized in a specific business area, such as accounting or marketing. Another difference is that MBA programs require several years of business experience whereas MIMs target graduates with less than a year or even no time at all in a job. As a consequence, MBA students can learn from their classmates\u2019 practical experience and gain insights into their industries. MIM students primarily build up knowledge through classroom teaching and case studies only. MBA curricula are also more practically oriented, primarily teaching through case studies and sharing the students\u2019 work experience in the classroom. MIM programs, by contrast, include more theory, particularly when they lead to a Master of Science degree<\/p>\n

    Why do a Masters in Management\/Is it right for you?<\/strong><\/p>\n

    A Masters in Management\u00a0allows students to develop their understanding of business operations and organizational behavior from multiple perspectives. Ultimately, the goal is for students to graduate with a solid foundation in effective management practice in their chosen industry, with an eye towards an eventual leadership\u00a0role.It\u00a0is an ideal course for recent graduates who have no work experience and wish to work in leadership positions.\u00a0 This course is suitable for students who come from non-business backgrounds and are looking to gain some business concepts.<\/p>\n

    A Masters in Management will\u00a0prepare -students to handle management issues in all areas of business with the option to concentrate or specialize in one area. Most programs begin with a set of required courses and then offer more specialized courses two thirds of the way through the program.<\/p>\n
