MANHATTAN INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT

Organization Directory Page


The Manhattan Institute of Management (MIM) was founded as a non-profit organization in 1984 by a group of prominent international corporate executives and entrepreneurs. The Manhattan Institute of Management is a private higher learning institution committed to offering students, from colleges and universities overseas, a high quality, global business education .

MIM offers students a real opportunity to gain insight into the meaning of business success, in New York and around the world. In the past 20 years, thousands of students have spent a semester or longer at MIM's downtown Manhattan campus. A 5 minute walk away from the heart of Wall Street , the location affords an opportunity for students to experience the workings of  international business in the midst of one of the world's most multi-culturally diverse cities.

MIM internship placements are a highlight of the students' learning experiences.  Students have the chance to work with major corporations and well-known companies with unique products and services.  Many MIM alumni have received full-time positions at the very companies in which they completed their practical training.

The curriculum is designed to challenge students to meet their full potential during their time at MIM, while helping to transform them from successful business students to successful business persons.
