Features

Imperial Business School is delighted to announce exciting changes to its MSc in Management (MiM).

Following an extensive review with faculty, staff, ��ý, alumni and external stakeholders, we will be launching a revised MSc in Management (MiM), commencing in September 2025.

The updated programme will unify the existing MSc Management and MSc International Management (MIM) into one, unique, MSc in Management (MiM) degree. By taking the best features of both programmes, we will equip ��ý with a strong grasp of the core business and management concepts essential in today's dynamic marketplace, offer access to our wonderful faculty, and combine interactive applied learning with increased training in innovation and leadership.

The redesign reflects Imperial's wider aim to continue developing the future leaders the world needs. We will continue to attract, nurture and champion the best local, and global talent, and empower them with everything they need to make a meaningful difference.

As a result, we will no longer offer the MSc International Management and the MSc Management as separate programmes from 2025 onwards.

James Eteen, Senior Teaching Fellow & Academic Director of MSc in Management (MiM), shares insights into the new programme and the exciting features that make it a standout for developing the global business leaders of the future.

What are the benefits of combining MSc Management and MSc International Management to create MSc in Management (MiM)? 

The overarching benefit of studying on the unified MSc in Management (MiM) will be job readiness for careers in consulting, finance and across a broad range of other sectors. The programme helps accelerate early-career success and prepares ��ý to become business leaders. This is achieved in several ways:

leadership development: employers tell us that a strong leadership focus is essential for graduates to get ahead in their careers. Our MSc in Management (MiM) will prepare ��ý for this from their first step in their career and beyond.

practicality: the programme combines academic theory with interactive applied learning to real-life business contexts, and strategic problem-solving is a common element throughout the curriculum. We make extensive use of software simulations, in-class team discussions and engagement with external companies.

diversity: bringing together a diverse cohort of ��ý, from a range of prior degree backgrounds, whether business, economics, finance, the arts or sciences, reflecting the reality of teaming in the workplace.

flexibility and choice: our ��ý and alumni have shared with us the importance of choice in shaping their learning journeys. The unified MSc in Management (MiM) programme will provide greater access to shared electives, as well as integrative modules in the Summer Term. Students also have the option to extend their programme to 16-months to complete longer internships or global exchange placements for an additional fee.

How will studying MSc in Management equip ��ý with the skills they need to make a meaningful difference as a business leader? 

Prospective employers want our ��ý to have engaged in formative experiences, have learned resilience and adaptability during their studies, and have developed leadership skills. AI and data skills are also in demand for future employers. Many of the academic modules require ��ý to embrace the use of AI and other tools as a central part of the learning process.

We are committed to helping our ��ý progress rapidly in their chosen careers. Our Organisation and Leadership modules focus on personal awareness and introspection, consideration of the psychology of self and leadership, and the development of interpersonal skills. This allows our ��ý to graduate with the ability to navigate complex workplaces.

Our ��ý will also have access to one-to-one career advice and support throughout their studies.

91% of our 2022-23 combined cohort from MSc International Management and MSc Management accepted an offer of employment within three months of graduating.

What are some standout features of the new programme?

Our MSc in Management (MiM) embodies our Business School differentiators - a focus on innovation, entrepreneurship, social and environmental impact, responsible leadership and applied learning.

With over 30 electives to choose from, ��ý can decide to focus on developing skills around a particular concentration, or pick a selection of elective modules from across the full range available.

The programme features the choice of integrative modules. Students can choose between an Entrepreneurship module, in teams of ��ý will create an innovative business idea from concept to investor pitch, or a Sustainable Business Simulation, which provides an immersive environment where student teams run competing businesses. Later in the term, ��ý will then have the choice between a Consulting Project - a substantial group-based project undertaken for an actual client - a Work Placement, or Extended Work Placement. These options allow ��ý to bring together lessons they’ve learned from their academic modules and put them into practice in a supportive, real-world environment, where they will have access to extensive coaching support.

Who is best suited for the MSc in Management (MiM) programme? Who are we looking for?

Our MSc in Management (MiM) is suitable for ambitious candidates seeking a practical and interactive master’s degree in management. We welcome ��ý from any degree background who can demonstrate a good level of quantitative achievement.

For those who do not have a prior business or quantitative degree, we offer support in the form of interactive quantitative skills primers that must be completed prior to the programme commencing.

Our 2023-24 MSc Management programme attracted a truly global cohort. We are proud to have hosted ��ý representing 43 different nationalities, enriching the learning experience with a wide variety of perspectives and cultures. And we will continue to encourage applications from across the globe for our new programme.

Applications for the new MSc in Management (MiM) are currently open.
