The world is y(our) incubator.
MIT Sloan is about invention. It's about ideas made to matter. Here, we discover tomorrow’s interesting and important challenges. We go where we want to have an impact. And then, we invent the future.
At MIT Sloan, leaders come together to solve the most complex problems and bring solutions out into the world to improve today and advance tomorrow.
What is the MSMS Program?
The Master of Science in Management Studies program is a unique, customizable degree that complements an MBA or equivalent master’s degree from a partner school—Asia School of Business, Fudan University, Lignan University, the Lisbon MBA program, and Tsinghua University—or affiliate school—ESMT Berlin, IE Business School, Imperial College Business School, HEC, and INSEAD.
The MSMS program allows graduates or current students from these schools to pursue advanced studies in management and receive a Master of Science degree from MIT in nine months. Students have the ability to immerse in a particular area of study; including, Economics, Finance and Accounting (EFA), Behavioral and Policy Sciences (BPS), and Management Science (MS) and then complete a thesis based on their area of interest. Students are encouraged to complete approximately half of their credits within the same academic realm as their thesis topic.
Students can also broaden their knowledge and experience base with MIT Sloan Action Learning courses along with MIT and Harvard courses.

Expert and Approachable Faculty
You’ll notice an informality at MIT born of mutual respect. Everyone here is exceptional, and everyone assumes you are, too. The professors you have lunch with know that because you’re at MIT, you have a hand in something both interesting and meaningful. They respect that. If you have questions, they'll help you find the answers, or lead you to someone who can. And those expert professors, like most people here, are refreshingly down to earth.
