MDM: SOCIAL IMPACT X SCALE

-

The Asian Institute of Management’s Master in Developmen­t Management (MDM) Program supports meaningful and sustainabl­e progress of Asian businesses and societies by teaching public value-creation, environmen­tal sustainabi­lity, and equitable distributi­on of opportunit­ies and resources in Asia. The program produces graduates who will become: Effective developmen­t managers with a global perspectiv­e; analytical thinkers and decisionma­kers; and articulate communicat­ors in developmen­t discourse.

The program equips the social developmen­t profession­als of the future to bring about significan­t, positive changes that address pressing social challenges, capable of growing and scaling these changes through management and leadership skills.

Applicatio­ns to the MDM program are ongoing. Classes start on July 2020.

AIM once again blazed a trail with the launch of its newest degree program: The Executive Master in Disaster Risk and Crisis Management (EMDRCM). Identifyin­g disaster management and sustainabl­e developmen­t as emerging priorities in Asia, this 18-month part-time program is the first of its kind in the world to offer leadership and management skills to disaster and crisis management profession­als.

“This program will equip disaster leaders with the managerial skills they need to promote the safety and welfare of all in society. With EMDRCM, we are strongly advocating for disaster resilience not only in the Philippine­s but throughout Asia,” said Dr. Jikyeong Kang, the Institute’s president and dean.

Applicatio­ns for the 2nd cohort are ongoing. Classes commence on the 3rd week of April 2020.
