All, I know there is a thread of MBA.
However, I just want to know the quality of the local MBA.
Some said, not worth taking a local brand MBA or less prospect.
I list down some of the local MBA
MMU
UM
UPM
UKM
UTM
UUM

Any one study or graduated form the above MBA?
Mind to share your experience and also your current working after MBA??

Thanks for sharing.
We all know a prestigious MBA, like Manchester from Sunway and Nottingham are costly.
Local one is more affordable. But is it worth the value (time and money).

I would like to know any who hold the local MBA manage to change their career path?
I just want o know how was the local grads MBA doing now...

If there is no different as not many working opportunity that require MBA in Malaysia. I also doubt how many mployer will appreciate the foreign MBA more as it is also obtain locally.

which university is INTI affiliating with for this MBA?

I know UTM, UPM and UM's MBAs are quite well respected in Malaysia. I don't think MBAs from shit overseas unis like Uni of Southern Queensland or Newcastle Uni of Australia are any better to be honest. I have met their graduates and the quality was appalling. As long as it accomplishes your career goals, local MBAs are good enough, unless you are able to to go to top MBAs like Harvard, Wharton, Insead, LBS and the like.

Your friend is changing career path ?
What field do they involve now?

Even local MBA is not cheap though..not much cheaper than the oversea MBA by Segi....

Not every one have the chance to study Top MBA. Study a MBS at SUnway is it same with MBS in UK?If it is not, why an employer will appreciate the degree more?

I just wonder..not have any bad comment of any MBA..I just want to make a wise choice

uni of hertforshire

u mean Hertfordshire....

hmmm ok!

Are Unity Ballarat programmes not good? How about at MSU( Management Science University) MBA programme?

yes yess..my bad

If you need to be spoonfed even in determining whether a local or foreign MBA is of higher quality instead of doing a little research yourself e.g. checking out the ranking tables or writeups on the quality of the various institutions you're interested in, I'm pretty surprised that you're looking forward to enrolling yourself in a postgraduate programme in the first place.

if u know that the ranking for local MBA is not much different, there u would like to found out from those graduated or studying in local MBA.
I have seen the post in MBA...I am not interested in foreign MBA that taught locally.

thanks for ur unproductive opinion

There's also Insead and the Chicago Business School in SG.

But seriously, I doubt UPM is that good.

Added on April 1, 2008, 12:21 amdo u think we want to leave our country and study overseas? if our local univeristies dont discriminate in their student entries and academic staff we would at least have 'a' university to be proud of. non currently is on par with sg's uni... and currently now not even thailand to some extent.... we have to use our parent's hard earn money to gain knowledge elsewhere because the tax $$$ my parents paid had been used to feed certain ppl...

what happened to our local universities? only god knows...

If you're to look at the history of UPM, you'll find that its one of the most notorious public universities in Malaysia when it comes to abuse of power by the authorities.

The problem with the public universities in Malaysia is not because nobody wants to improve them, but mainly because of politics (both external at the national level, and also internal within the universities itself). Furthermore there's the AKU Janji document that has to be signed by all students and staffed, of which the wording is so biased that in signing that, the person had virtually signed away their rights for legal representation while giving the university the right to put down any sort of accusations on the person.

not only that... only universities in malaysia is not based on merit but skin colour... sry to say this to my bumi friends but those who know me agrees too... look at NUS' law faculty... you will be shocked by the amount of academic staff that are from malaysia...

I mentioned Insead and CBS to add to your list of best B-schools in SE Asia. It wasn't about the cost.

Seems like I touched a nerve there... you from UPM?

Blind nationalism gets you nowhere. I demand the best my money can get me, and sadly the best schools I can afford are NOT in Malaysia.
Give me a reason to do it locally - are our schools anywhere near the Top 100 (or even 200)?
Why do you think the govt spends millions to send our best and brightest overseas? What does that say about the govt's confidence in their own IPTAs?

<BTW, I am good. I have worked in one of the biggest companies in the world and have studied in some of the best schools on the planet. >
