MIM now or MBA later ?

by Lifetron » Mon Apr 08, 2013 10:04 pm
I have been preparing for GMAT. I have been working for 2.5 years now. So, I have two options:

1. Do MIM now
2. An MBA later.

Which choice will benefit my career, in a long term ?

Thanks!

gughanbose,

Thanks for your post.

Regarding your question about which degree would most help you reach your career goals in marketing, I think an MBA would be much more advantageous than an MIM degree since it will be more focused on marketing and general management opportunities. I suggest reviewing the career reports for schools in both programs to better understand the career opportunities from each. You could also reach out to people who are in the jobs you would be interested in and see if they would have a short call with you to discuss their experiences and education suggestions.

Best,
Heidi
