Do students with a ug degree in engineering and a pg degree in MBA have an advantage?


Question:
do students with a ug degree in engineering and a pg degree in MBA have an edge over those wid a BBA +MBA or BCOM +MBA?

Answer:
yes. employers think that engineers have better analytical thinking than BBAs and BCOMers cuz of higher math & physics subjects they take.
yes ,because they learn different subjects compared to BBA and they have some practical knowledge.
yeah a little sort of but it does not matter whether u study engg. or b.com when u do m.b.a it gets equally paid for both engg. and b.com students
yes getting an engineering degree is a professional course, added to that they are qualified in business management so they are proficient in two fields
It only helps if you do well in engineering. If you barely graduate from engineering it will be difficult to both get a job and get accepted to an MBA program. Engineering is a difficult degree and you won't make it if you don't have much interest in the work. However, you have to recognize that once you receive the MBA it is unlikely you will continue doing "engineering" work. You'll move to the business side and no longer have the chance to do all the cool stuff the "real" engineers are doing. You have to decide if you want to move up in company on the research side or the business side. If the answer is business go for the MBA. If not the answer is a MS or PhD in engineering.
Yes, in many organisations since the level of mathematics and science taught in engineering is higher than what you get in BBA or B.Com. Almost all branches of management are much more mathematical and engineering gives a solid foundation in logical thinking and quantitative decision making.

But there are many opportunities for others too, so not to worry.
