Asian Institute of Management

AIM is a pioneer in international management education. It was established in 1968 with the Harvard Business School, academicians, and businessmen. The founders envisioned AIM as a source of 21st century Asian change agents and designed the school’s master and executive programs to produce managers with the skills, knowledge, and attitudes relevant to Asia’s emerging markets. Their initiative made AIM one of the most experienced graduate schools in Asia with 40,000 alumni. While AIM is based in the Philippines, its clientele are in India, Indonesia, Malaysia, and the Greater Mekong area. AIM is the first school in Southeast Asia to achieve accreditation from the US-based Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) based on the world’s highest international standards. AIM offers five degree programs: 1. The MBA is a 16-month graduate management program designed for young men and women looking to jumpstart a career in management. Since 1968, more than 5,000 graduates from 27 countries around the world have used AIM’s MBA program as their passport to a lifelong career. 2. The 11-month Master in Management is a fulltime graduate program for experienced managers in career transition, whether upwards to higher responsibilities or laterally to other functions or industries. The core competence of the MM graduate is strategy and leadership. 3. The 18-month Executive MBA (EMBA) is a corporate change program. It creates change from within an organization through a partnership forged among the manager, the organization, and the AIM faculty. 4. The 20-month Evening Executive MBA is designed to enable working professionals to obtain an MBA from a world-class business school while balancing work, family, and personal commitments. Students learn the fundamentals of business strategy and general management competence they need to lead, build, and manage enterprises that create value in a dynamic, global economy. 5. The 11-month Master in Development Management is an intensive, innovative, and practitioner-oriented program designed to arm mid-career development executives and practitioners with tools to manage and lead public and civil society organizations, cooperatives, and private non-profit firms in the context of economic, social, and political development.
