On the eve of its 25th anniversary, the Graduate School of Management SPbU received confirmation of the success of its master's program "Management" once again. The program became one of the top 25 best programs in the world.

 

Master in Management (MiM) made a real breakthrough, it has risen 16 points in the ranking FT Global Masters in Management 2017 and took 23th place in the list of the 95 best Master in Management programs in the world.
