MIM Courses Abroad 

Many students asked the panellists regarding the scope of Masters in Management (MIM) courses overseas during the webinar on International Studies.

Masters in Management (MIM) is a postgraduate – level degree program that lasts for a duration of 1 or 2-year depending upon the country and university one plans to join. MIM differs from MBA, based on the practical and theoretical approach of these two choicest programs. Like other management degrees, MIM concentrates on Marketing, Finance, Entrepreneurship, Consulting and related fields. The degree equips individuals with all that is needed to become a successful professional. 

Khyaati Jain remarked that when it comes to seeking a MIM degree, Canada outshines as an ideal destination for International Studies because of its industry-oriented program structure, shorter program duration, higher employability rate, economical tuition fee etc. MIM in Canada is one of the most opted management courses by the Indian students as the country allows you to pursue it with minimum requirements.
