Hello,
I am an engineering graduate from India. I would be graduating in August this year. I am mulling over two options whether to go for an MBA five years down the line or a Masters in Management program right now.
I know that the MBA program is more practical as opposed to MiM which is more theoretical and also there is no summer internship in an MiM program.
But as an engineering graduate I don't want to wait for 5 more years and moreover if I do wait my work experience would be in the IT field which would not help my candidature very much.
Of course if I go for MiM I will apply for the fall 2013 intake and I will have a work experience of 1 year by the time I join which I am not sure is a positive thing as most of the students join this course straight from their undergrad schools.
The doubts that I am having are:
1. After completing my MiM and working for around 5 years would I be earning as much as a fresh MBA graduate.
2. Will not having an MBA restrict my growth prospects in a company?
Regards,
Tarun Gupta
