Hi guys...

I am deciding between UniSA MBA (@ITD) & Strathclyde MBA (@CDC Mgt Centre).

I did some research and generally I found out that :-

1) UniSA (RM34k) ; Strathclyde (RM51k)

2) UniSA is in mont kiara, Strathclyde is in phileo damansara. (I live in PJ)

3) UniSA does not requires theses, therefore its much easier to complete on time, which according to many is the main reason many people have to extend their duration of studies in Strathclyde.

4) UniSA has this 2-3 wks study trip in Shanghai which is much more affordable. Strathclyde's option is to take the entire semester (2-3 months) in Glasgow.... on our own expenses.

5) However UniSA program in ITD is going to be terminated from July 09 onwards. Therefore if I enroll for the Feb intake, I defer any subject I only have ONE chance to retake the particular subject.

6) Regconition & accrediation wise, of course Strathclyde stands out with triple accredition and top 30 rank in FT. UniSA only have EQUIS and 5 star ranked in Australia.
Can anyone give me some suggestion or their opinion ? Or are there any better schools out there I dunno about ?
p/s : MBS and Nottingham are beyond my budget.

Hi markcyk,
Are you sure that they will terminate the partnership with UniSA in July 09? Is it confirmed? Please verify this as I am currently considering enrolling myself into this . Many thanks!

Please provide some proof so that we can share.
If UPM is the best, hehe... i will consider ge... coz I want to take MBA soon + near my stay

i'm in a dilemma choosing between a degree or a CeMBA being offer in Wawasan but then again i need to pass the Cemat test 1st?  

Q's:  
1) what are the differences between a degree & MBA?
2) how do Cemat works; subjective or objective base? any preparations to do? what are the topics in the paper?
3) how do you define a good MBA? more projects assignment or more theoretical test base?

i read from a site that CeMBA was designed, developed & implemented by:
Indira Gandhi National Open University, (IGNOU - India),
Bangladesh Open University (BOU - Bangladesh),
Open University of Sri Lanka (OUSL - Sri Lanka), and
Allama Iqbal Open University (AIOU - Pakistan) and
writers from universities in Commonwealth countries like Australia, New Zealand and Canada.

4) so how difference is it with the MBA? is CeMBA recognised in all commonwealth countries or just the few from the above?

my objective is something to help me to boost in my career path, will not be a help in my current very small company working now but for future.
