Good Morning Everyone.
Greetings!

I am a Civil Engineer with exactly 7 years 4 months of full time experience as I write this post. Following is my GPA - Secondary - 3.5, Higher Secondary - 3.7, Graduate - 3.7. The core area functional area for my professional career is Water Utility sector and my area of expertise is the water distribution management in Urban Sector. I take pride to say that my entire professional experience is related to Management & equal distribution of Drinking water, one of the most concerning issues in today's world. My functional role in my organization has been changing from Field Engineer level to project management level as I have moved up the organizational hierarchy. I have developed skills in the field of water pipe line laying project management, water loss reduction management.
My GOAL is to further my role in the field of water sector where I see myself becoming an expert in formation of policy, strategy and landmark projects for effective water management for developing & underdeveloped countries. I am looking for a MBA program which will give an opportunity to achieve my goals in life.
Please advise me on best schools & programs that offer advanced curriculum on Water Sector.

With regards,
@Niladri
