Is it better to earn a MBA focused on healthcare administration, or a straight MBA?

It depends on your undergrad.  If it is in the healthcare area, there is no point to do it again in your MBA.  If not, it may be good to 'specialize' your MBA.

BCom honours would be a good degree. You could do CA after that.\n\nAnd MBA and MCA are two fields which are completely different from each other. So it wouldn't be fair to compare them. Since I am not a technical type of person, I would go with MBA.

In my opinion...\n\nAnd in my 15 years experience as an EE the middle/upper positions seem to lead to management positions where one has to know both the engineering skills AND project management side (budgeting, scheduling, etc.).  Post graduate courses in Systems Engineering and Manaegment provides some of those skills, getting an MBA is probably just a step along the way of natural career progression.

If you are looking at doing an MBA then Id be more concerned about the effort required to get one rather than the cost. Any half decent University is going to see you earn every letter on that particular certificate.\n\nIts worth the effort by the way and apart from the hard work it can also be a lot of fun.

I've heard that recently that for a balanced education go for the MBA.  You can do a lot more with it, however if you are specifically interested in law, Law school would be the obvious choice.  You need to decide what you want to do when you finish school- not what type of school to go to.

There's little real difference.  Assuming that you're talking about an MBA, 3 or 4 years is comparatively slow.  Most MBA programs can be completed in 18 - 24 months of full-time study.  Many MBA candidates are already working and therefore take longer as they're studying part-time.  At the end of the day, there's no difference based on the amount of time taken to complete the degree.

why not do both?  business is a facilitator.  science is a mechanism.  You know what I mean?  Get an MBA and a PhD.  With that combination, you will be very successful and your career path will reveal itself to you.  dont be afraid of the 10 years you will need to complete this tract.  It will be well worth it and you will be able to make your investment back in no time.

well a phd only helps you if you want to teach business management really an MBA is just as good really it comes down to how much real worl experience you have and how successful you have been in your career. If you go for a plant manager job or something high up in banking you could make a 100,000 U.S. dollarsz a year that here is really good money but sometimes they require you to have 10 + years experience but not always.

MBAs are a dime a dozen. You will have to guarantee your future by working very hard to keep your job.

An MBA teaches you all aspects of running a business. If you are a doctor, you are already pretty good in your field of health; but it is not expected that you would ace finance or marketing, strategy, etc. these are key elements of running a business and that's where an MBA plays a key role. It educates you with the essentials and you develop good connections with business coaches that can help you.

It depends on what you want to do after biz school. I've talked to many friends and family members who've gotten their MBAs and that's their point of view. I decided not to go to biz school.\n\nPros:\nBusiness schools give you the academic credibility and opportunity to step into large, well-established corporations. It also gives you a network of alumni who can refer you to jobs, so you most likely won't have to worry about not finding a job. Not to mention a higher salary in general.\n\nCons:\nBusiness schools don't teach you specialized skills, like engineering, design, nursing, etc. If you do full-time, you give up about 2 years of salary plus the cost of school.\n\nI want to do my own design business and it's more important for me to learn about design than business. I think business is an art that comes with experience and intuition, and so is design, but I can always hire MBA grads to provide business advice while I focus on the designs.

No, it is not. I would strongly recommend you get your MBA if you have the opportunity, but as long as you go to a reuptable, accredited school -- (none of that "Get your degree on-line" or "Get your degree in 12 weeks" crap) -- then you'll be well-positioned to be successful. It's more about how hard you work, your ability to think critically and creatively, your ability to work well with others, and finding a good "fit" with a company where your goals are aligned with company goals. Yes, going to a top 10 MBA program would be great... and it may open additional doors for you.... but getting an MBA from any good/decent school will stand you in good stead with 99 percent of employers out there. It's more about what you bring to the table than where you went to school.

The Business Administration has a lot more math/quanitative classes in the program, more accounting even. Business management has more qualitative classes. The Business Administration class has a better chance of going into MBA programs (thats what I was told).

there is no such thing as a MBA - Masters of Business Administration - in Education. \n\nSee info on education degrees below.It's usually preferable to get your degree in one of the more reputable programs rather than going with an online program.

MBA would absolutely give you almost all the opportunities in all kinds of corporation to be hired easily esp. when you have taken it from some famous business schools like Harvard, Wharton, Stanford, MIT:Sloan, UCBerkely-Haas,etc. Literally speaking, it would be your "golden key" to open a "golden box". That's why the competition tobe admitted in that course is also a challenge one.
