Which MBA stream to study for, from the point of view to open a small/ medium scale Business/Company in near Future… that can hep in opening it with proper
understanding about things somewhat..

accounting, corporate strategy, decision sciences, property management, economics, entrepreneurship, finance, general management, human resources, international business, marketing, information systems / information technology, telecommunication, organizational behavior, project management, and operations management.. any suggestions

note: i’m going for my MBA right after finishing undergrad, i will have high gpa but my major is labor studies (which is more about human resources, etc)

I relate more easily to finance but I think it’s just an easier degree.

I’m certainly not passionate about engineering but I can be interested.

I didn’t do well in the hard sciences in high school but then again I never studied.

Corporate finance: Easy for me (as for most people). I can finish a 4-year degree in 3 years (including one year of internships) and add another year of internships for good measure, graduating with 2X the work experience of my colleagues. And then go for an MBA. But, there are zillions of finance graduates. A job, if I find one (which is hard), would start at around ,000.

I don’t really know if I have the charisma, persuasiveness and social skills that are essential to make it big in finance as a stock broker, investment banker, hedge fund manager, etc. I’m a loner.

Petroleum engineering: Very difficult and boring if I don’t get really involved from day one. I can finish a 4-year degree in 3 years if I kill myself, but not with internships. It’s not hard to find internships after graduation, though. The subjects would be challenging but I think as long as I attend my lectures and labs and do my coursework I’ll be fine. Jobs are supposedly plenty and a salary can start at ,000 or more. I even heard of some 0K starting salaries.

I don’t need to be a great people person. I get paid well to do important and specialized work.

With an engineering degree an MBA is still possible, but not the other way around. I can look for a job and do my MBA at the same time — the salary would be enough.

I’m starting college all over again at 22 and I want to make the right choice this time. I want to be a wealthy worker.

I recently got admitted to a top British university to study finance and accounting management. What I want to know is that is there any point in doing an MSc as well before going for my MBA or is it basically pointless if thats my ultimate goal?

I am extremely opposed to going to college an extra year for my undergrad, especially since I might want to take MBA/JD for my graduate studies, and that’s another four (very expensive) years.
