Distance MBA in Finance or IT – does add any value for software professionals??
Hi
I’ve a little bit of confusion in selecting the most suitable MBA course and the management institute for me. I’ve experience of working in IT industries for more than 4 years and most of it is in financial/brokerage services domain. I’ve worked as Business Systems Analyst as well as Software Test Engineer and for that I’ve a little bit of awareness of brokerage and other financial services and I’ve a knack in those subjects as well. Currently I’m working as a Test Professional in a ‘non-finance’ [computer/printer software related] domain. I’m looking for an MBA degree (thru distance learning), which would help me grow in my career. Now the concern is whether it is advisable to do distance MBA in Finance domain or MBA in Information Technologies.Also can somebody please help me in finding out the best institute for me.Following names in my mind –
1. Sikkim Manipal University, [MBA-IT : 2yrs]
2. Symbiosis, [PGDIT: 2yrs]
3. Amity University [MBA - IT: 3yrs]
Plz help! Thanks!
Hi,
I will suggest you to general MBA from distance learning. General MBA also covers Finance, Economics, Operations Management, Information Technology in details to understand the domains. As I understood you want to learn these domains and not want to become expert. If you have bandwidth then many management universities like MDI, FMS in Delhi run executive MBA program as evening classes. Otherwise, these days all reputed colleges run Executive MBA through sat-elite in all major cities. For more information check http://www.mbatopcolleges.com/Executive%20MBA.aspx

Distance MBA does NOT do jack for you in terms of increasing your pay or promotion prospects. If you are taking it up with that aim not worth it. From a knowledge perspective, you learn better by investing sometime into it as a parttime (jamanlal bajaj for example) or full time student. The distance MBA program managers will try to convince you the other way, of course they will
