I have just completed engineering in electrical. I decided to do MS, but still in mind MS or MBA? …then two more question arises..
1.MS in which field?..which field is in demand?
2.MS in which university?
please solve my problem….. my engineering aggregate is 67%
MS or MBA in USA
Your decision to study in US after completing Electrical Engineering in India should be appreciated. Many students don’t even think about studying in US, because of time and effort involved in university admission procedure.
Having said that, selecting the field based on demand is NOT the right way. Basically you want some field that will pay you money. You can work for money for 6 months or maybe 2 years. After that you will not feel like working, if that’s the field you don’t love.
If you want to enjoy your work, you have to love the work/job you do. Selecting a field MS or MBA based on job and salary alone will not help you in your career.
MS or MBA?
If you read the article MBA to be or not to be, you will understand whats involved in Technical field and Management field. So, evaluate yourself, what kind of career you want. Talk to people in management and in technical field with experience. Understand what life will be after few years.
Then decie for yourself which field you want to study. Don’t decide on MS or MBA just based on job in demand or salary. You will not enjoy your life. Moreover it will look like hell, if you hate the job.
Also, studying MBA without work experience is not recommended. You will not be able to associate the theory from book to work situation. Without work experience, MBA will not be of much value. If you decide to go into MBA instead of Masters Degree, then work for atleast 2 years, then apply for MBA.
You don’t need work experience to study Masters degree in Engineering field, apply right now and you can complete M.S. degree in no time. You have the option to study MBA after completing MS. So, by completing MS is not the end of the road for you. Hope this answer helps. Good luck in deciding between MS or MBA

Iam doing my B-TECH final year.When is the correct and apropriate time to write GRE exam.also i got 83% in 10th,79.3% in 12th and 68%(till now) in B-TECH.Will i get admission in a good University with my performance? Is there any problem in getting VISA???
Dear Bharat,
You should concentrate to your GRE, TOFFEL exam. Percentage matters but not that much. You should involve yourself in paper presentations at various institutes and some research work.
This shows interest in your subjects. Try to appear in July month so that you can get admission in fall. Visa is toughest for doing graduations, hard for masters and easiest for PHD programs. Get a good score and you will get a good university.
