English term or phrase: SM
He holds an MFA in photography from Yale University and an SM in Management Science from MIT.

Can anyone tell me what SM stands for and the equivalent in Spanish?

Many thanks for your help!

Spanish translation:maestría
Explanation:
Puede soar confuso, pero un SM del MIT no es otra cosa que una maestría. En tu contexto, sería "una Maestría en Ciencias de la Administración" o "... en Ciencias de Gestión Empresarial".

Language variant: Spain

Explanation:
Creo que si es para España, una "maestría" se suele llamar simplemente un "master", aunque no es realmente lo mismo que un MS en el MIT, pero no hay otra solución
