Master the world in a school
built for the future.
Welcome to the next level of Management in the heart of Lisbon.
ISEG introduced the new MiM in 2020, an innovative way for forward-thinking students and professionals to get a unique and full range experience in business management. If you want to make a difference in the corporate world, this is the course to take.
The MiM was built around the future of the workplace. It’s where you’re headed, after all. The master’s programme, accredited by the Agency for Assessment and Accreditation of Higher Education (A3ES), will place management in a more technological and digital world, requiring stronger analytical and quantitative skills.
Our intention is to develop a new generation of conscientious managers and leaders for all kinds of organisations. All course units were carefully designed to make you think about the overall future impact of decisionmaking in any organisation or company. And by embracing the 2030 Agenda of the United Nations and the 17 Societal Challenges summarised in the SDGs.
ISEG’s MiM will strive to move the world in a better direction. Hopefully, with you alongside.

After my BSc in Economics, I wanted to pursue my academic studies in Management in Portugal, and the choice to undertake the MiM programme at ISEG was clear. ISEG is recognized at international level as one of the most prestigious business schools. Also, the MiM programme is focused on sustainability, an important theme due to the current reality of our world, which will allow us, future managers, to be better prepared to make conscious and impactful decisions. The variety of course units addressed throughout the study plan and the challenging and international environment of classes, allowed me to develop essential skills and broaden my knowledge. The amazing experience I take with me is something that I recommend to anyone who wants to grow as a person and professional.

ISEG’s MiM is a programme with its eyes set in the future. We were constantly faced with the newest challenges, trends, tools, and ideas. The pace and subject variety of the program prepared me to be a flexible, dynamic and curious go-getter, capable of interlinking the many sides of management. The possibility of choosing a major stream had a tremendous effect in envisioning the type of professional life I aspire to have: one that could mix both the broader aspects of management and the more precise teachings of the major. All while operating with the most sustainable practices, such as the ones we were taught and the ones I explored in my sustainabilitycentered Master’s Final Work.
Now that I have finished ISEG’s MiM I can confidently say that enrolling was the best decision I could have made. It gave me a well-rounded understanding of management, that was further complimented with the teachings of the major, all while having the values of the SDGs to guide our choices.

The choice of enrolling in the Masters in Management programme relied on its uniqueness. Its focus on sustainability allied with a broad view on Manamement gave me the vast knowledge on the field that I was looking for, while still allowing a specialization through the choice of a major stream. MiM is a forward looking program focused on how to tackle future challenges.

The experience at ISEG was really intense and stimulating. Firstly, because it gave me the opportunity to acquire new working tools, some of which I immediately put into practice, successfully, with my co-workers, and which I then generally ‘revisit’ periodically as needed. Secondly, because I was able to compare myself with other people from completely different realities than mine, thus gaining new insights and new perspectives on common problematic situations. Why participate in MiM? It’s like shedding more light. You get a better overview, you notice new details and other nuances.
