In a world ever so competitive, young professionals are left to fend for themselves in attempts to learn what is needed and apply what is learned. Helping new graduates in this transition, the Master in Management (MIM) offered at FGV EBAPE is one of a kind in Brazil today.

The Master in Management (MIM) is the passport for students to reach exceptional business careers. The program provides a solid foundation in core management areas with a strong international perspective—students dive into the wonderful world of practical and theoretical knowledge. There are two possibilities:

Regular Program Format: Classes and master thesis are done at FGV EBAPE;

Amazon Immersion Experience

The students will be able to observe first-hand some of the environmental projects and sustainable management practices performed by key players within the public, private and third sectors in the Amazon region.

Students’ activities during their stay may include: Interviews with/presentations by key influencers and policymakers that perform the role of movers and shakers of Brazilian policies on sustainability.
On-site observation of the challenges and opportunities faced by the private, public, and non-governmental organizations working on sustainability projects.
Interaction with employees, consultants, and beneficiaries of the activities performed by these organizations.
