i enrolled for USQ's MBA program at SEGI Kota Damansara. Intake starts 18th July...anybody taking MBA in SEGI and starting this 18th July?

anyways, i've checked with SEGI and it seems this sem as of now, only got 1-2 fresh grads. i dunno if it's a good or bad thing?

my colleague is going through a very bad experience in his MBA now. according to him, the ppl with more working experience tends to be abit stuck up and putting on the "know-it-all" attitude. for example: they are less open to other group members ideas because they think that they have more experience therefore, they are always right. i'm not against them for knowing more, coz in the end of the day they do have more experience and i'm more than happy to learn. but i guess it's just how they communicate. hence i believe interpersonal/soft skills are equally important. something you cannot learn from class...

so if anyone is starting class this 18th july, gimme a holla!

hey Nightfall,

i suppose you're starting this coming 18th July? which specialization did you choose?

i've also enrolled in the USQ MBA program at SEGI KD, and will be starting on 18th July 2009. i signed-up for the Marketing Specialization.

I have got accepted. I got the unconditional offer from them on April. Hope you can get accepted. Then we can be classmate. Are you going for full time or part time? I am going for full time, General MBA.

There's a Postgrad Fair coming this weekend....Why not *see* more :=)

Hello!

Is anyone studying in MBA University of Southern Queensland from SEGI College?

Would like to join Nottingham but not sure about the course.

Are you going to be taking it there? i might sign up for the KL center. Can't decide tho lol


Considering about Victoria as well

what you want to know about USQ Segi MBA?

Maybe should post here in the existing topic for easier consolidation:
http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/380355

PM me if that's the wish and I'll move those relevant posts over.

i noticed alot of people on this thread said they join USQ,
i am wondering if you are able to enrol even without 2 years working experience, cause at most i have only over half a year working experience. Also, anyone knows the time table for full time as Segi?

I am also considering Inti - 1 year full time and help's 1.5years part time, but seems to have lilttle feedback on either

Anyone where can i study part-time Masters in Mass Communication or Masters in Advertising at Klang Valley? Interested to take the part time course end of this year.

Any one taking uum master of science (Finance)? How the course like? good? Or any good mba (finance) / master of finance offer by local/private uni that is good?

@khchong81,
I don't believe there's a Masters of Advertising in MY but the closest available one would be the UniSA Masters in (I'm not even sure what it's called again!) that's affiliated with KDU.

Go check it out.

Any specific reason those management position choose UIA rather that others university? Company sponsor? Quality Study?

Hi bontaku,

Perhaps, can check out the coming Postgrad Fair this weekend at KLCC

@Nightfall
It does provides me with a broad knowledge and the intelectual with the others field of working adults(different industry). This is the most important as you don't wish to has a class lecture with those fresh grads that lack of experience. It is advisable to select experience student for your group discussion or assignment.

@Jessica
I choose general management instead specialisation. IMHO, i would not suggest MBA student to choose specialisation as the mean for a MBA course is to equip you with a well grounded with different field of interest for your future career. The specialisation offer by MBA is really a misleading student which does not really compete with others specialisation course. Ex; if you specialised in MBA marketing, you are no where that able to compete with a CIM grad student. If you specialised in MBA project management, you are no where compete with a PMP graduates, if you are a MBA finance specialised, you are also no where compete with a CFP graduates.

In short, MBA is not main for specialisation, its main purpose to equip student with various of field expertise such like HR, finance, marketing, accounting, information system, law, and economics.

im interested in starting mba at segi KD as well. but i lack 2 years working experience. however i had a friend which didnt have working experience, started mba at segi and just recently finished it o_O. so i am not sure if im eligble to enrol. anyone know further information?

@Jessica - postgrad fair ? where about ? couldnt find any info on it =x

I beg to differ. If u look at the specialization it is just 4 elective subjects. It is no different from the general management because u will be choosing 4 electives from the various specializations as well. Unless ur talking abt other MBA's offered else where.

As far as USQ's MBA is concern, the core 8 subjects are the same, just 4 elective subjects.

Seem like my only choice is to take MBA la....

@khchong81,
Er.. why is that so?! Like I said, go check out the one being offered by KDU affiliated with UniSA. That's a pretty program. I looked into it when they first launched but didn't take it up because I felt I 'over' qualified *muAHahH how modest of me* LOL

@red-queen

If you are MBA marketing specialisation, you will only choose all the 4 elective subject offer under marketing subject. If you are taking general management, you will be able to choose the total 4 various elective from finance, marketing, IB, HR, and projects. This will equip you with well grounded knowledge in different field pursuing later of your career in management level.

If you proactive enough, compare MBA marketing specialisation subject(4 subjects) offer with a professional marketing CIM course(12 subjects) offer subjects.

BEsides, get more consultation from your senior, lecturer or your professor for a convince advise what the purpose MBA serve you a better tools. This marketing fella that convince you to enrol a MBA course is useless which i found it later of myself.
