The great MBA / MS / M.Tech Dilemma

[raj87verma88]

We are talking here about MBA and M.Tech. Some are interested in technology and some in administration and likewise choose their courses. Some even quit after B.Tech/B.E. Mostly people choose MBA thinking it will pay more and this is the typical mindset. Get your degree, get a good fat paying job. 15% of the people take science in school and later do B.Tech so that the admission to MBA is easier(B.Tech student is given a preference). It is like an investment to them. They don't care about technology or research. For those 15% I have another suggestion. Take a course in patent law. It is even more paying than an MBA and only a person with a science background can do it as you will have to deal with technical stuff.

I have made my choice.

Feels good to hear those words!

The bottom line is - Go with what you like. Don't just follow the crowd like an clueless soul.

MBA/MS/M.Tech (in my humble opinion) are avenues to take you where you want to go - but you have to know where you're going!

Hi i am also in the same dilemma. I have been to the field and feel that there is no real engineering going on only some form of maintainance(especially in africa). I am very curious and want to know how things work and even develop new technologies, i am also very good in doing business and managing things that is i can handle both paths well. problem is that i find courses at my university wanting(technology wise, they are very behind) and would opt for Mtech if i were to find a scholarship abroad and MBA if i were to remain in my home country. I therefore need advice on how to obtain a scholarship, my grades are excellent and i am entering my fourth yr in sept. I also welcome advice on my choice of paths bearing in mind that i have both the interest and capability to take either path.
