The Asian Institute of Management is organized into four schools, each offering a range of academic programs and research initiatives.

  • The Washington SyCip Graduate School of Business (WSGSB) offers three MBA programs: the International Master in Business Administration (iMBA), Executive Master in Business Administration (EMBA), and Online Master in Business Administration (OMBA) programs. Aside from MBA programs, WSGSB also offers various specialized postgraduate programs such as Master in Cybersecurity (MCS), Master in International Business Law (MIBL), Master of Science in Financial Technology (MSc in FinTech), and the Executive Doctor of Business Administration (DBA). Instruction is based primarily on the case method developed at Harvard Business School. The school applies American and European management principles to problems in Asia.
  • The Stephen Zuellig School of Development Management (SZSDM) was established in 1991 as the Center for Development Management, and was renamed in 2014 in honor of Dr. Stephen Zuellig, a supporter of the Institute. It offers two programs: the Master in Development Management (MDM), a 12-month full-time program, and the Executive Master in Disaster Risk and Crisis Management (EMDRCM) program, an 18-month part-time program.
  • The Aboitiz School of Innovation, Technology, and Entrepreneurship (ASITE) is a school within the Asian Institute of Management offering programs in entrepreneurship, data science, and innovation. These programs include the Master in Entrepreneurship (ME), Master of Science in Data Science (MSDS), Master in Innovation and Business (MIB), and the Bachelor of Science in Data Science and Business Administration - Bachelor of Business Administration Major in Management Information Systems (BSDSBA & BBA, MIS). It also houses a research laboratory called the Analytics, Computing, and Complex Systems (ACCeSs) lab.

Washington SyCip Memorial Fund[edit]

The Washington SyCip Memorial Fund was established after the passing of SyCip in 2017. A lead gift of US$5 million (or almost ₱260 million) was donated by an anonymous philanthropist.[9]

Rankings[edit]

The consulting organization and publisher of global academic rankings Center for World University Rankings (CWUR) ranks the Asian Institute of Management as first among all Philippine universities and 1079th worldwide.[10]

Research[edit]

Asian Institute of Management features several research centers and one incubator:

The Asian Institute of Management-Rizalino S. Navarro Policy Center for Competitiveness (AIM-RSN PCC) was established in 1996 and serves as AIM's public policy think tank and research arm. The Center focuses on emerging international economic trends and the demands of a competitive global trade and finance environment. AIM-RSN PCC was formerly known as the AIM Policy Center but was renamed in 2015 in honor of former Philippine Secretary of Trade and Industry Rizalino Navarro.

The Ramon V. del Rosario Sr.-Center for Corporate Social Responsibility (AIM RVR Center) focuses on corporate social responsibility and corporate governance. It was established in 2000 and conducts both research and non-research activities. The center was named after Ramon V. Del Rosario Sr., Founder and Chairman of the PHINMA Group. It manages the Hills Program on Governance established by the American International Group through its C.V. Starr Foundation.

The Team Energy Center for Bridging Leadership (CBL) was founded by Prof. Ernesto Garilao after he was inspired by a global research project on “bridging leadership” conducted by the Synergos Institute in 2000. CBL's focus is on developing “Bridging Leaders” who will address societal divides in the Philippines and in Asia. CBL was formerly called the Center for Bridging Societal Divides.

The Gov. Jose B. Fernandez Jr. Center for Banking and Finance (JBF) was launched in 1994 in honor of the late Philippine Central Bank governor Jose B. Fernandez Jr. JBF focuses on researching issues faced by the financial services industry, improving the competence of Asian financial managers, and building alliances between Asian business institutions.

The Dr. Andrew L. Tan Center for Tourism provides studies that support the Philippine tourism and hospitality industry. It was established in 2012 in partnership with Megaworld Foundation and is mainly focused on the development of sustainable tourism in the Philippines and the rest of Asia.
