The ESADE Master in International Management (MIM) and the CEMS Master in International Management (MIM), a global programme offered in Spain only at ESADE, have retained their position near the top of the Financial Times's global ranking of masters in management, taking 10th and 7th place, respectively.

The ranking lists the world's top Bologna-compatible master's programmes, which can be taken on completion of an undergraduate degree and are oriented towards fostering the international mobility of students.

According to Alfred Vernis, Director of the University Programmes Strategy Unit at ESADE, "This result illustrates the effectiveness of our ongoing internationalisation strategy, our commitment to excellence and our guidance of students throughout the educational period and onwards into the professional world."

First in international mobility
For the third year running, ESADE's MIM has been named number one in the world in international mobility.

The Financial Times praised the programme for its graduates' high rate of job placement outside of Spain. Fully 93% of MIM alumni find employment in a different country, such as the United States, Germany, France or the United Kingdom.

ESADE's MIM has also been named number one in the world in Corporate Social Responsibility and number two in Marketing and International Business.

International experience
The Financial Times rated the MIM students' international experience quite highly. The British business daily was impressed with the global profile of MIM students, who hail from every corner of the world and possess a multicultural mindset that allows them to adapt to any country.

The international experience gained by students during the MIM programme was also valued very highly, taking 10th place in the ranking for that variable. MIM students are able to participate in international internships, exchange programmes and company visits in various places around the world. The end result is an enhanced ability to find work after graduating.

CEMS Master in International Management
ESADE offers undergraduate and MSc students who want to develop an international career the chance to pursue the CEMS Master in International Management (MIM). This course, which leads to a common degree offered by all of the CEMS universities, is available in Spain only at ESADE.

The CEMS MIM is a pan-European programme open to students pursuing a master's degree at any of the CEMS member schools. More than 700 students from 50 different countries participate in the programme every year.

CEMS is a strategic alliance of 27 member schools on four different continents, plus more than 71 big-name corporate partners. The CEMS MIM is a management programme that targets recent graduates and aims to satisfy the demand of companies seeking young workers with management skills. It provides a high level of education and professional experience for multilingual, multicultural postgraduate students.
