History

The Politecnico di Milano started up its Master course in Production Engineering in 1979. The course is currently known as the “MBA-Master of Business Administration”. It then changed hands and came under the responsibility of the MIP University Consortium founded in 1986.
Plans were drawn up in 1987 for the “Corporate Management and Innovation Evening Course” - currently known as the “Executive MBA” course.                                 
Other extended and ad hoc teaching packages for business concerns were soon added to the master and evening courses.
Applied research activities, projects, and observatories financed by the European Community were also organised during this period.
