The FT weighted three-year salary for graduates of Lund's International Strategic Management programme is about US$86,843 — the Financial Times cross-school figure measured three years out. Lund does not publish its own salary or employment statistics for the programme, so the FT figures are the available benchmark; the FT records an 82% employment rate at three months.
Graduates of the Lund University MiM report $87k on the Financial Times' weighted measure — pay about three years after graduation, not a starting salary. The employment rate within three months of graduation is 82%.
That places it #33 of 51 programs we track on graduate salary, below the cohort median.

- International Strategic Management — official programme page (SEK 160,000 whole programme, first payment SEK 80,000; no tuition for EU/EEA/Swiss citizens). SELECTION CHECKED 2026-09-11 (P24e): the no-test tier is confirmed — no admission test appears in either half of "Requirements and selection" — and the two halves are quoted here because this profile previously ran them together. Entry requirements: "An undergraduate degree (BA/BSc) with at least 60 ECTS credits in business administration. English course 6 (advanced proficiency)." Selection criteria: "Selection will be based on academic merits from previous university studies and a Statement of Purpose in which applicants state their reasons for applying to the programme." The 60 ECTS is therefore an eligibility threshold, not a ranked criterion ↗ — Lund University
