Why isn't there any comments on Sunway's Manchester MBA Program?

I applied, waiting for approval result.

Is it true that you need to be at least 27 of age and above? No exceptions?

i am taking the MBA from UM @ Dec intake and just share with you some of the information i gather through the orientation conducted on 17/12.

- UM started to offer MBA in the 1980's
- Currently having 70+ full time lecturer, of which 40+ having a Doctorate Degree with an average of 12 years industrial working experience.
- Each year, there will be 8 ~ 10 visiting lecturer from foreign institution
- According to the dean of graduate study, they are committed to improve the ranking of UM and intends to further upgrade the quality of their courses.
Prior to taking up the UM MBA, i have compared UM UPM & Segi-USQ and here are some of my findings:

UPM

- Their MBA offer in 6 Concentration/Major and require to take up a total of 14 courses (10 core, 4 elective) & 1 Thesis (6 credit hour) which sum up to a total of 48 credit hour. Course structure are very similar to UM but with less choice on the field of concentration.
- Admission: CGPA min 2.75, no working experience required
- Conducting in both Day & Evening Class
- Fee = RM 26k
UM

- UM's MBA offer in 11 Concentration/Major and require to take up a total of 15 courses (10 core, 5 elective) & 1 Thesis (6 credit hour) which sum up to a total of 51 credit hour. Course structure are very similar to UPM but with more option on the field of concentration. (Quite heavy )
- The assessment is basing on 60% coursework + 40% final exam (alamak i didnt know this before hand)
- Thesis assessment 70% project paper + 30% presentation.
- Admission: CGPA min 3.00, min 3 years working experience required
- Conducting in both Day & Evening Class
- Fee = RM 19k

Segi-USQ

- Offer in 12 Concentration/Major and require to take up a total of 12 courses (8 core, 4 elective), no thesis required. which sum up to a total of 36 credit hour. The program is based on a combination of coursework + exam
- Admission: Degree, 2 years working experience required
- Conducting in both Day & weekend Class
- Fee = RM 30k ++ (According to post #1016)

Maybe those taking MBA in Segi & UPM can provide more information on their respective courses.

TS: I've passed CFA Levels I & II, and I can personally say it's not too difficult if you do the studying, but only if you've done some finance work. If not, it may be greek to you at first, but you can pick it up as you go along. Don't know about Level III, planning to take next year

tan8: I think you can, but to be a CFA charterholder, you need four years professional experience in a relevant field (banking, finance etc), IIRC.

Is it true that you need to be at least 27 of age and above? No exceptions?

I checked few places. Most the classes held on weekends even the full-time. Haiihh. I prefer on weekdays because weekends is for real life social activities.

erm...i just finish my degree programme....thinking to take some MBA...
but most of MBA require ages....my age has below the requirement...any suggestion sch. ...??

If that's the case, here are the few options you can go for weekdays classes:
1. UTAR
2. University of Nottingham

I need 1 more year of working experience to meet the requirement for Nottingham.

How’s the quality for UTAR?

Btw, I just registered for MBA Banking & Finance at Lim Kok Wing. I’m not really sure about the quality over there. Anyone study in LKW for MBA?

Anybody knows when is the upcoming post graduate fair for this year? Meanwhile, what do you guys think about MBA offered Helps institute??
