Of the 5 Master in Management programs we track in Sweden, only 2 publish a salary comparable across schools ($86,843 to $109,000) — too few to call a national median, so the figures stand as they are. It is the Financial Times Masters in Management weighted salary — alumni pay reported roughly three years after graduation, adjusted for purchasing power and expressed in US dollars — not the salary a graduate starts on.
Salary by school
Salary is the FT weighted figure measured about three years after graduation (USD, PPP-adjusted) — not a starting salary. A school not in the FT table shows its own reported figure in its own currency, which is why it is named separately above. Click any school for its full salary and career-outcomes breakdown.

Working in Sweden after your MiM
Master in Management graduates who completed their degree in Sweden can apply to the Swedish Migration Agency (Migrationsverket) for a residence permit to look for work or investigate starting a business. You qualify once you have finished the full programme you were admitted to and passed your courses, and you must show funds to support yourself across the twelve-month period. During it you may look for and take up work while you search.
Sweden charges no tuition to EU/EEA students, so this post-study permit matters most for non-EU/EEA graduates: when you find a job you apply to switch to a work permit, or to a self-employment permit if you start a business. Apply before your student permit expires.
Tuition vs. salary
Tuition across these programs runs from SEK 0 to SEK 192,000, against the $86,843 to $109,000 reported by the 2 programmes that publish a salary.
Tuition is shown in SEK and salary in US dollars (the FT's reporting currency), and the salary is measured about three years after graduation while the tuition is paid up front — so treat this as a rough orientation, not a precise return-on-investment ratio. Living costs, scholarships and exchange rates all move the real number.
