Madrid, November 13, 2018.- Today, IESE Business School has announced it is launching a new program, the Master in Management (MiM), which is aimed at recent graduates and young professionals. It is the only program of its kind offered by the school. The program will start in September 2019, and be taught out of IESE´s Madrid campus. A scholarship fund of half a million euros has also been made available for participants.

Aimed at recent graduates looking to take their first management role, the Master in Management (MiM), will have a duration of one academic year. The program will be an immersive experience, allowing participants to acquire the best business management tools (both theoretical and practical) in order to kick-start their management career.

The addition of the MiM to IESE´s portfolio of programs completes the schools business education offering, which now covers all the stages of development of a manager – from first entry role to CEO.

Franz Heukamp, Dean of IESE Business School, said: “This program is an important milestone for the school. IESE has a long, rich history of training middle and senior executives. Now we will also be able to help recent graduates gain the analytical tools and humanistic background needed to prepare them for their first job, and begin their journey towards becoming leaders who can have a positive impact on the world around them.”

The MiM will be taught from IESE´s Madrid campus, which has long been a center of excellence in managerial training for the school. IESE launched its first Executive MBA from Madrid.
