Hello again, I almost forgot you sorry.
I will try to give some answers
--- Operations management: is dealing with planning and logistics of operations.
--- strategic management aims at developing management skills and behaviors necessary to effectively manage an organization.
-- general MBA implies general studies of business administration, versus specialised MBA, which means business administration applied to a specific field.

Sorry, I don't really know, that's why I left that out. But I presume that any MBA with concentrations in IT will bring those two fields together, no?

Hi,
I must admit that until now for me Hult was not a notion. I had a look at their website, its true, impressive stats and info. Actually you can easily find on their site the type of information you are looking for when you start researching for an appropriate MBA. I appreciate the thoroughness, it is a very user friendly site!

I was looking specifically for their accreditations and rankings, and did find both easily. Doing that I also came across all valuable info about alumni, career prospects, salary increase etc, which you don`t find on the sites of many other b schools in that comprehensive way.

The MBA is only ranked in the EIU ranking, it is not the first US program everyone will think of - of course they disclose all this info to make the program more attractive. But I found it time saving and pleasant to look for info on their site, other schools could copy...

The MBA is AMBA ranked, composition of classes in surprisingly international, strong Asian attendance. But then average GMAT score is 580, well...

My conclusion about Hult is that It is not top tier but it sounds like worthwhile, if you have an average profile and want to go for a program opening career perspectives not for its brand but more thanks to a consistent career and networking service of the school.

Check out the info by EIU:
mba.eiu.com/index.asp?layout=school_snapshot&unive…
Plus evaluate thoroughly what you find on the school`s website, if it corresponds to what you look for.

Answering deep mishra:
I would like to go on posting to you, but I didn`t understand your last post I´m afraid.
An MBA with those concentrations suits your needs, combine communication with management, doesn`t it? Then, what exactly more you`d like to know? Are you asking about career options?

Always trying to help ;-)

Well, I am a database administrator. But just technical stuff can't get me further.
I need to have some understanding of the business.
so my question was what should be my path so that I stay in IT and and grow rather than ending up at financial sectors

Yes, I understand, if you want to evolve into jobs with more managerial responsibility, or even create your own company, you need to broaden your knowledge, beyond your specialised IT know how.
An MBA will give you this knowledge, ideally then you chose concentrations in IT, in order to always link what you learn about business to your IT specialisation.

Hello Moshi,
you have a good choice of MBAs of one year with concentrations in marketing, among them some really good ones, here a small selection:
Thunderbird
University of San Diego (USD)
University of Florida - Warrington

I got 59 results doing a research on this site, why don't you have a look if you find something that suits you? Here you go:
www.find-mba.com/search/

Regarding the work xperience, US schools are not so demanding, but you have to look up the regulations for each school individually.

There is no "average expenses" I'm afraid. Tuition varies termendously from one program to the other, living costs are different also, depending on of you chose NY, LA or somewhere lost in the countryside..

Hi Guys,
There is a one year MBA program At MArshall Business School (it's called IBEAR MBA). Does anyone has idea about the program? The information at website is impressive but what's the ground reality? :-)

Any inputs will be gratefully accepted.

Hi,

In my opinion, these are the best 1-year MBA programs in the US, no doubt. But I'm sure a lot will disagree, though.

1. Emory University - Well, Atlanta is a cool place, and Emory is a historic university. Its business school, Goizueta, is very highly ranked in the US.
2. University of Florida - Great college town (Gainesville), well-ranked MBA program, and lots of parties (football, basketball, and just around town).
3. University of Pittsburgh - Reputable university, nice city.

Well, those are my choices and opinions. I hope this helps!
