subject: MBA from Delhi/NCR [print this page] Whether it is a question of a bright career with money or running a business, the first degree which many of us will be
biased towards is undoubtedly a Masters in Business Administration or MBA. Most students find this degree a gateway for their
prosperous life with higher living standards. History too have given indications that 60% of successful entrepreneurs are MBA degree holders.
This wave has given way to the set up of MBA colleges all across the country no matter how small the city. According to Google, the search giant there are 400 + colleges offering MBA degree in India. The trend is expected to pick up as the government has passed a bill which will enable Foreign Universities to open campus in India.
One question which can be debated is "MBA from a small city or a metro?". On one hand where metro cities offer environments to learn and bring the theoretical concepts of MBA to practice while on the other side an MBA from small city would mean lessons without any practical exposure of the corporate world. Many scholars put emphasis that having MBA from metro city helps a lot in terms of understanding the consumer mind set and understanding the different consumer segments and their behaviour towards a product or brand.
Among these metro cities, Delhi/NCR has emerged as a big hub for management (MBA) education and not forget to thanks Uttar Pradesh government to establishing Knowledge Park, where the colleges are located. Delhi/NCR offers management students a whole new corporate world and experiences which they can cash to establish their own business.
A few of the advantages of having MBA education from Delhi/NCR is mentioned below :-
* Almost all corporate/MNC offices are located which means a lot job opportunities.
* Big market to leverage
* Companies offering live projects to the students pursuing MBA
* Foreign Universities planning to set up campuses
* Possibility of being offered pre-placement job offers.
* Presence of all most all segments of people
* Faculty that are excellent in their field
So the moral of the story is to have dream degree (MBA) from metro city like Delhi so that the future entrepreneur will have root knowledge consumer behaviour which they can leverage in fruitful way if studied in detail. Doing the degree from small cities merely means coming for the classes, taking the theoretical lessons and then going back to home, just similar to school days. This is just a contrast to the MBA philosophy of exploring . This philosophy can be understood by students of metro city only.
