Hello Fellas. Lets start this forum for discussion on MiM / Msc in Management related queries. MiM and Msc are very popular in Europe and are regarded as an alternative to MBA (because most of the European school require 3-5 years of work experience). So many graduates having no work experience or having under 3 years of work experience find problem in finding a good European school for a management program. MiM / MSc in Management provides an excellent opportunity to get a masters degree with little or no work experience, with the quality of European education playing a major role in the process.
Following are the top 10 schools according to financial times rankings offering the above mentioned course:
1) HEC Paris
2) St. Gallen
3) IE Business School
4) Essec School of Business
5) Cems
6) ESCP Europe
7) Esade Business School
8) Rotterdam School of Management
9) EMLyon Business School
10) HHL Leipzig Graduate School of Management
Also, St.Gallen accepts applications for Finance only of Students who have graduated in economics or economics as a subject.
Hi!

@pratik_rs said:@PM Also, talking about other threads giving out more info on admission for R2/R3, i am not aware of any such thread, since i myself am new to this. Hence i have started this forum so that we could have more people discussing about this subject.MMS of Fuqua starts in July 13, have application deadlines on Jan 24 (R2) , March 6 (R3) , April 25 (R4).LBS has them on 31st Dec, 31 Jan, 28th Feb, 29th March, 30th April & 31st May.For Indians it is recommended they apply by the end of Jan so that interview and other formalities can be completed within the available time.
Are any of you applying to IE Business School? It is highly ranked in all the rankings but it's in Spain and the unemployment rate there is extremely high right now. I am not sure whether I should apply to IE
Now, coming back to IE. Top colleges like LBS, LSE, IE have a strong alumni network all around the world. So this is the point on which you should decide as to which college would be suitable if you are graduating from Europe. They help you a lot in job search and many students find a job within 3 months after graduating. So if you are in the top half of your class. there are high chances you will be employed in 3 months.
I'll give you some of the top schools according to me for general management:
1) University of St.Gallen (Switzerland)
2) HEC Paris (France)
3) IE Business School (Spain)
4) Cems (France)
5) HHl Leipzig (Germany)
6) City University:Cass (U.K)
7) Kozminski University (Poland)
8) Vlerick Business School (Belguim)
9) Eada (Spain)
I am yet to take up GMAT. First ill be trying for the top colleges in India. If i don't get them then ill go for Europe. I graduated in 2011 and have been working in a management profile since then.
@pratik_rs said:@tarun.g IE is one of the top schools. Also, hiring across europe is almost nil. So anyways if you are interested to get a top masters dergree from Europe, you'll have to come back after the completion of the course.Now, coming back to IE. Top colleges like LBS, LSE, IE have a strong alumni network all around the world.

Ok i understand your point of view. But have they told that the students placed in Spain would work in Spain? Because, for example, consider Bank of Santander. They are a Spanish bank and do their recruiting in Spain. But the final posting is maybe be Portugal or XYZ country. Can be a case. Need to explore that.
To put it short,
If you are considering MSc in Finance then dont look beyond HEC. They are a class in it.
If it is a general management course, i.e, MiM, then i would suggest you weigh your option towards IE.
About ESCP and ESSEC, whatever little info i have, we'll discuss by evening.
