hello all,

i am richard from chennai, 24 yrs old working as a software

Professional in chennai for the last 1.5 years.

it has been a dream from my school days to do my M.B.A after my

engineering..but due to family situation i joined the first company i

attended( I am happy with my current job and getting a descent salary)

but it has been in the bottom of my heart that i want to do my M.B.A!!

now what i have been planning is trying to do m.b.a through distance

education or parttime..when it will be worth wile to do this program..

at this period or after getting few more years of experience..

my belief is if i start the program next year then i could complete

in 2 years ..by that time i will be having arounf 4 years of

experience + degree in management..will the degree help me in moving

to next level of my career as a project lead or team lead something?

will i be getting a cutting edge advantage over other candiates with my

experience but dont have th degree? so to summarise

=> is thsi right period to start my M.B.A or after few years..

if after years then how many years from now?

=> will the parttime degree added with my experience give me

a advantage for moving into managerial positions ?

any H.R professional or anybody out there please give my

suggestions/ideas.thanks in Advance to all!!

Dear Richard,
Nice to find a technical guy interested to get into management side. According to my (Opinion differ from person to person) you can continue your career for another 1 or 2 years. Join some companies which sponsors the employees to do their executive management program with IIM or ther institute.
May God bless you!!!

Hi kalpana,
thnaks for your response..i gave it a thought.but the problem in doing
m.b.a by my company's sponsor is i will be having a bond with them for 2
years (right now in the company which i am working and upto my
knowledge the same time in other companies also) this means i wil not be
able to move out of the concern for 4 years..that wiil be really lot of
time..so i want to study on my own..u have any idea for best partime
institutes to pursue an m.b.a in and around chennai..i appreciate ur

Hi,
It is nice to know that you are interested in doing your MBA. Don't bother about the difference your degree certificate would make after you complete your MBA. Take it as your personal interest and do it Im sure you would get to learn atleast something out of it. Having an MBA degree is always an added advantage. You could try Manipal university, Symbiosis these institutes offer distant learning programs. So cheer up and go ahead!!!!

Dear Mr. Richard,
There is a Twinning programme offered by Loyola and Pondicherry University. The classes are conducted on Sundays. It is a very good programme.
Or you have a MBA programme conducted by Madras School of Social work in the Evening. You can try that also.
Other option is, doing an Executive MBA offered by some private institutes.
Being in Chennai, you have plenty of options and you can choose the one, which is beneficial in terms of quality, scope, and money.
