Your profile wouldn’t be a good fit - it’s a program targeted at recent grads (0-2yoe). If you are looking for a career change/boost, I’d apply to MBAs. If you want to stay in Spain, I’d recommend both IESE and ESADE over IE.

I assume that’s a pre-experience master too, but it depends… what’s your background? What job do you want to land post-graduation?

With your exp, I'd go for an mba. The extra money is worth it as your starting salary would be higher post-MBA.

Hi there—current IE MBA student here 🙋🏻‍♀️

I can’t speak to the MiM per se, but had someone in my class who previously did that program a few years ago only to return for the MBA this year because he felt the MiM hadn’t benefitted him much. It is pricier, yes, but definitely carries more credential weight, especially since IE has been moving up in rankings over the last few years. (Side note, not sure where you got the $90k price tag from? The MBA was $70k for last intake and can’t imagine they increased tuition that much!) But regardless, they do offer scholarship and loan options.

As to your concern that you may be ‘too old’—you didn’t mention how old you are but the Masters programs do generally tend to have students in their early 20’s 😬 The average age for the IE MBA intake this year was 30, with a few classmates who were as young as 25 and others as old as 35/36.

Anyways, hope this helps!
