i am working as an engineer, looking to get mba to broaden my knowledge.
Since it is different than a classroom-teacher environment, is it acceptable in real world, also is it worth taking, i mean, do we get enough knowledge from these online courses.
i never experienced it or know anyone who has. Please let me know pros and cons about online mba degree.
thanks,














Many good schools offer distance learning MBA programs. When you get the degree, you get the MBA from the school. It does not say its an evening MBA or distance leraning MBA or full-time MBA. What matters is the school from which you earned it. Advantages include studying at your own pace, and from a school you want regardless of its location. But you don’t have the interaction with other students and close contact and suppoer. You have to be very disciplined.
Before you consider which MBA program is for you, consult the Official MBA Guide, a comprehensive free public service with more than 2,000 MBA programs listed worldwide. It allows you to search for programs by location (US, Europe, Far East, etc.), by concentration (finance, marketing, aviation management, health management, accounting, etc.), by type of program (full-time, distance learning, part-time, etc), and by listing your own criteria and preferences to get a list of universities that satisfy your needs. You can use the Guide to contact schools of your choice, examine their data, visit their web site, and send them pre applications. You can see lists of top 40 schools ranked by starting salaries of graduates, GMAT scores, and other criteria. It’s the best service available at http://officialmbaguide.org.
