Hello


Thank you for choosing CareerGuide.com and writing to us. Hurray! Biotechnology and then Management! You are almost similar to what I have been doing in my career. This got me enthusiastic in posting my opinion on this thread.

I understand you are a BTech Biotech pass out. May I ask you what have you been doing since graduation? Are you currently working? And if yes, in what field? Studying abroad is crucial and it requires careful selection of the university, program of study and the country of study. I understand you have an interest in MBA. My humble suggestion is, please do not consider doing an MBA if you have not got a minimum of two to three year work experience. Studying MBA is very challenging especially at abroad institutions compared to studying at home institutions. Without a genuine interest into MBA and relevant work experience, every student will find it very challenging. More over, employers abroad prefer recruiting students with prior work experience post MBA graduation. If you had studied an MSc, this prior work experience may not be an issue to employers. they will be indeed happy to recruit freshers without work experience. So my sincere advice is to consider only an MSc and not an MBA.

Next, MSc in what? Are you interested in doing an MSc Biotechnology or MSc Management? You will have to jot down your interests and arrive at a degree you want to study. If you have genuine interest to study MSc Biotechnology, please carry on with it. I can suggest some of the world reputed Universities for MSc Biotechnology here. (I am writing top 10 in the world)
  1. University of Harvard
  2. Cambridge UK
  3. Oxford UK
  4. Imperial college London UK
  5. Stanford USA
  6. Johns Hopkins University USA
  7. MIT USA
  8. Yale USA
  9. UC Berkeley USA
  10. University of California San Francisco USA

For an admission in the UK: IELTS score is alone sufficient.

In case you are interested in doing MSc Management abroad, the top 10 universities are down here.
  1. Imperial College London
  2. University of St Gallen Switzerland
  3. HEC Paris
  4. Rotterdam school of Management Netherlands
  5. NUS Business school Singapore
  6. Grenoble graduate school of business France
  7. LSE UK
  8. Cass business school UK
  9. Strathclyde business school UK
  10. Durham Business school UK and
  11. Cranfield school of Management UK

I sincerely suggest you to consider an MSc instead of an MBA, considering the job prospects post study. If you also opt for an MSc, your tuition fee costs will also be relatively less compared to the MBA tuition costs. And there are many scholarship bursaries and funding available for MSc students compared to MBA students. If you still wish to study an MBA, a study after 2-3 years of work experience is desirable.

I hope this helps. All the best.
