MS or MBA which is better ?
MS or MBA which is better -Classic question that’s been doing the rounds is- out of the two MS or MBA which is better Of course we all know that an MS is an American Degree for post graduation Engineering.MBA for that matter can be done in USA or at your home country too,most of the management objectives and training of MBA is almost the same all over the world.
Keeping that in mind we can rephrase our common question to an MS in USA vs an MBA in USA or anywhere else in the world.So,if you are a confused Engineer, read on and go
thorugh these points of difference before you can make up your mind.
| MS | MBA | |
| 1 | A continuation of your engineering stream
And a much more in depth study of your subject. If in college you didn’t have a good time whilst doing Your B.E or BTech or B.S Degree, common sense Will tell you –enough of Technical Knowledge by doing an MS |
It is something new,a brand new course study,brand new collegeBooks,subjects and in a way a new life (academic) so to speak.Honestly,technical Education is quite hard, so to many Engineers doing an MBA will be a cakewalk, instead of again roughing it out |
| 2 | 2Doing MS in US is a new lease of freedom in it own right as it will be a whole new world for manystudents who have been stuck in the same city for the last 16 years of their educational life.This is the first time you will be out in the world on your own,which is certainly not a bad thing.It will be an advantage as your quality of life will be improved and you will make a new set of friends. Chances more than your home country and work there. |
On the other hand doing an MBA in your home country could also be a pleasant experienceas its so convenient to travel,close to home ad your work together.This way you can easily keep your job and earn while you earn while doing a part time MBA course.Think of it 2 MBA you can have your cake and eat out the period,instead of going and still pay for boarding lodgiing, |
| 3 | The cost factor is one of the most important.Doing MS in USA can be expensive as therewill be other costs as mentioned above besides college.We are lookingat living expenses,rent,travel,air tickets and tuition fees. It could skyrocket.Nonetheless an MBA from USA |
MBA in your home country can be very reasonably priced starting from a few thousanddollars,but MBA in a foreign country again can prove to be extremely expensive asan MBA is the most sought after professional degree.Also,most executives of companies are enrolled into the MBA one of the primary reasons why an $30K onwards a year. |
| 4 | AS far as careers and salaries are concerned
there are a few things to bear in mind.An inexperienced MS passout will command a lesser salary than an MBA passout who is equally inexperienced |
Also,on the other hand, a candidate who has
experience and then gets his MS will also be lesser paid than an experienced MBA passout.
