Academic FAQs
 

Should I take the Master in Management (MM)?
 

If you have more than six years of experience—with three of the six years in a managerial position—and you are on track to assume leadership positions, or if you want to switch to a different career track, the MM program may be for you. MM''s 11-month duration will also allow you to make a quicker return to workforce.

The program focuses on building adaptive, transformational, and inspirational leadership skills. At the same time the MM develops students'' strategy formulation and implementation skills. These skills become prerequisites to accelerating the MM graduate through the higher levels of their organizations. The MM features a unique field experience called the "walkabout", where students spend a month towards the end of the MM to develop their leadership capabilities.

Candidates may be sponsored by their companies or may come to AIM on their own. Though the minimum requirement of MM is six years'' experience, MM students tend to have nine years'' experience.  The average entering age is 33.

Should I take the MBA? 
 

If you want to move into the fast track of corporate promotion, or if you want to start your own entrepreneurial venture, AIM''s MBA hones business thinking, analysis, and decision-making. AIM''s MBA is a boot camp for management fundamentals and business knowledge. 

The MBA (before 2003, known as the "MBM") targets younger professionals with at least two years'' work experience, though on average AIM''s MBA candidates have 3.5 years'' work experience and are 25 years old. (Note: In India these students are called "laterals". Unlike the IIM''s, AIM MBA and MM programs do not accept freshers.)

In the first eight months MBA students learn the core, fundamental functional skills of management such as Economics, Operations, Finance, Marketing, Accounting and Control, Management Communication, Development of Enterprise, and Strategy. AIM also has a comprehensive required course in Asian Business Systems to give the AIM MBA its Asian context.

In months nine through sixteen the MBA students do four major tasks: an action consultancy, MRR (management research report), electives, and exchange programs. In the action consultancy students do a live consultancy exercise with an Asian company. AIM helps students make these contacts. This AC may lead to an MRR, or management research report, typically a corporate strategy of an existing company or feasibility study, or a suite of classroom cases. By their selection of electives students may opt for the "default" general management track, or major in one of three areas: Finance, Marketing, and Entrepreneurship. Students can choose a "road" elective which takes them on a journey to various parts of Asia (Entrep Asia: China, Vietnam, Thailand; Islamic Management: Malaysia, Indonesia). Students can also participate in the Robert V. Chandran $100K business plan competition, which rewards the best student plans with $100,000 in angel capital.  Lastly, MBA allows students in the top 40% of the class to go on a semester exchange to prestigious partner MBA programs in the US, Asia, and Europe. The MBA starts on May 11, 2009 (mid-year intake) and September 7, 2009 (regular intake).

Candidates may be sponsored by their companies or may come to AIM on their own. Though the minimum experience requirement is two years, AIM''s MBA candidates have an average 3.5 years'' work experience upon entry and are 25 years old.

How is AIM''s MBA different from other MBAs?
 

AIM is the only school in Asia that uses participative learning almost exclusively. In recent years, experts like Henry Mintzberg of McGill and Warren Bennis of USC have criticized "classic" MBA design to be too "cookie-cutter" in approach. AIM, on the other hand, fits the ideal of Mintzberg -- hands-on, self learning, dynamic, and flexible.

Moreover, AIM injects Asian context into learning. Students learn not only the core fundamentals of Accounting, Marketing, Finance, etc. but also how to manage businesses in Asia. Students learn various business practices and cultures across many Asian countries.
 

How are the MBA and MM similar?

Both MBA and MM students must be committed to a full-time stay at AIM''s Makati campus. Both programs use the case method of teaching, and require students to do group and individual field research projects, write numerous written analysis of cases (WACs), and do an action-oriented Management Research Report (MRR), i.e., a Master''s thesis, as a prerequisite to graduation. Both MM and MBA offer electives in the finishing portions of their respective schedules.

How are the MBA and MM different?
 

The MBA and MM approaches and content are dramatically different.

The MBA builds a foundation for students'' thinking, analytical, and decision-making skills. Students learn "classic" management and business knowledge areas such as control, finance, operations, accounting, strategy, oral and written communication, quantitative methods. Though the MBA prepares students for future general manager positions, we recognize that students may choose specializations in their first job out of the MBA. The program therefore offers finance, marketing, and entrepreneurship "tracks" or majors.

By contrast the MM assumes that students already have foundational management skills, having gone through more years of managerial experience. Note that the MM is not a shorter MBA; it focuses instead on developing students'' higher-level adaptive, transformational, and inspirational leadership skills, and strategy formulation and execution skills. The MM program faculty members work in close, mentoring collaboration with students as they learn how to manage change, in parallel to building skills in strategy development, management, and implementation.  As a result of this mentoring, the students develop radically new outlooks of themselves, their organizations, and how to cope with a rapidly-changing environment. The students bring these fresh outlooks back to their jobs in preparation for fast-track leadership positions.

What are other distinctive features of the AIM MBA?
 

Aside from the way the different functional areas are taught to the students, there are two distinct features of the AIM MBA:

1. MRR. The Management Research Report is a major original work by AIM MBA candidates. Through the MRR, students are expected to apply knowledge and skills to actual managerial problems. The final deliverable is a thesis-like document that must be accepted as a final hurdle in the MBA.
   
    
2. WAC. The Written Analysis of Cases is the most memorable activity in an AIM MBA student''s life. A new case is given to the students every Friday at 5:00 p.m. The WAC must be submitted on Saturday at 8:00 a.m. This is a demonstration of AIM rigor.
    

What is the course content of the new MBA program?

Please visit our website for complete courses and descriptions.

Can I finish my MBA in less than 16 months?

No. The MBA program is full-time. All students take the subjects as scheduled by the GSB.

Does AIM prepare its graduates for the CFA?

AIM''s combined MBA Finance offerings are adequate preparation for CFA level 1 exams. In fact, students who do a Finance major in their MBA must pass either CFA level 1 or FRM qualifying exams. The CFA level 1 exams are held once a year in Manila (upcoming: June 2008) and twice in Singapore. AIM is the sole accredited partner institution in the Philippines by the CFA Institute of Virginia.

Where do AIM MBA students go for exchanges?

Why come to AIM? How is AIM different from other business schools?
 

The Asian Institute of Management is unique in manifold ways:

• AIM pushes Asia-relevant content and context. Students come to AIM because of the Institute''s four decades of experience in imparting and enhancing knowledge and skills on how to operate effectively in Asia, what business opportunities are presented by Asian regional economic integration, and how to develop sensitivity to the diverse cultures/belief systems, business structures, as well as governance and regulatory environment in Asia.
   
• AIM uses practitioner-oriented delivery methods. From inception, AIM has been committed to a practitioner-oriented approach to management education.
  - AIM employs highly participative, interactive methods of management training rather than one-way lectures. AIM makes rigorous use of the case method, field projects, and group projects. These effectively simulatereal world versus merely theoretical situations.
  - AIM''s faculty have had extensive teaching, consulting and management experience in Asia;
   
• AIM offers a multicultural, international experience
  - While many other regional Asian programs are homogeneous within the country, AIM''s student population is multinational. Under the International Student Exchange Program (ISEP), students can widen their horizons and spend a term in one of AIM''s premier partner business schools in Asia, Australia, Europe, and the Americas.
  - An appreciation of the distinct cultural heritage of Asia is strongly encouraged at AIM. AIM''s International Board of Governors consists of acknowledged international business and development leaders representing 17 countries.
   
• AIM has a strong Placement program. The Career Management Services (CMS) Office has a wide contact network of national and multinational offshore company recruiters in Asia, Europe, the Americas, and the Middle East. Last year AIM''s MBAs received offers at a rate of 126% from multinational companies, with highly competitive compensation packages.
   
• AIM has an influential alumni network. AIM has one of the largest and strategically positioned alumni networks in the region, with more than 34,000 alumni, including numerous leaders and managers from the private, public, academic and multi-lateral sectors. These alumni are committed to AIM''s excellence and offer students job and counseling opportunities.
   
• AIM has strong ties to business, academe, and government. It has active partnerships with regional partners in the region such as the World Bank, ADB, and CIDA; it is a founding member of top-ranked business schools in the AAPBS. It has active research, consulting, and student mentoring arrangements with more than 100 corporations.
   

Where is AIM?
 

Does AIM offer a part-time, Executive MBA?
 

AIM does offer an Executive MBA. This is an 18-month course where students come to campus one week per month. It is offered by AIM''s Executive Education and Lifelong Learning Center (EXCELL). For details please email excel_admissions@aim.edu or call +632 892 4011 extensions 416, 426, or 178.
 

Why is AIM offering a 16-month MBA?

MBA students worldwide are eager to return to work and want a faster return on their investment. We have designed a shorter, intensive, and streamlined program that delivers best value for students in a shorter time than the "traditional" 2-year MBA program

How is the quality different now that the MBA program is only 16 months?
 

The quality is definitely better. Courses have been redesigned for more rigor. New course designs have been benchmarked against the top business schools in the world. Additionally, we have taken the essence of Asian offerings and compressed them into a more intensive program. We have incorporated numerous non-classroom activities such as live simulation, games, negotiations, and even improvisations. Finally, to ensure linkage to the real world, we have engaged external companies and practitioners to participate in field research with students.

We have redesigned the MBA course''s finance, management control, and accounting to be more exacting. Students who graduate from AIM''s 16-month MBA must have at minimum the basic finance knowledge necessary for entry corporate finance or investment banking tasks. Many may actually take the CFA level 1 examinations. Even though AIM graduates might eventually select brand marketing or strategic consulting positions, they nevertheless possess fundamental skills to do the same job as a starting investment banker or corporate finance MBA position. Part of the new delivery system are intense "drill master" tutoring sessions in the evening to help students with only basic knowledge to attain higher levels of finance competence. All these combine to deliver an intense, rigorous program that gives AIM its unique advantage.

What is the Pre-MBA?
 

The two-week Pre-MBA gives non-accounting applicants a head start on the MBA program. It prepares the participants for the MBA with accounting basics (B/S, I/S construction and interpretation), basic statistics and numeracy, spreadsheet use, and case methodology. This is free for all accepted MBA applicants, and starts August 2009, two weeks before the start of the main MBA program.

Who can join the Pre-MBA?

Accepted MBA applicants with no accounting backgrounds will typically be advised by the admissions office to take to the Pre-MBA. This may vary case by case. The Pre-MBA is strictly optional, though highly recommended for non-accountants.

For the May 2009 intake, the two-week Pre-MBA is integrated in the program calendar. For the September intake, the Pre-MBA will begin in August 2009, two weeks before the start of the 16-month MBA.

Is a Pre-MBA required?
 

The Pre-MBA is not required, but it is strongly recommended for students with little accounting background. A student can attend the program if recommended by the Admissions Committee.

Is it possible to take only the Pre-MBA?

Yes, you can enroll in the Pre-MBA separately. You can pursue with the MBA in some other school year, or even with another school. If taken separately from the regular MBA, you must pay the pre-MBA program fee is PhP 90,000 (about USD 2,300) for two weeks.

Does the MM program have pre-MBA?
 

Some MM students may want to brush up on management fundamentals, so we encourage them to take part of the Executive Education MDP (Management Development Program). This course consists of certificate course takers, but gives the MM candidate solid foundations in numeric skills.

The school is in the process of developing on-line capabilities. We will announce developments on the web site soon.
