Be careful when you make such comparison.

I would have to say that ranking is very subjective, depending on which body and how they assess it. For example, QS ranking is different from FT ranking.

It's always better to look at the quality of the programme itself, rather than just the ranking. When you talk about quality, check the accreditation bodies attached to the programme.

University of Strathclyde is the only one out of 2 in Malaysia that has triple accreditation (AMBA, EQUIS & AACSB) with tip-top teaching quality. They're definitely ranked higher than UM (which only has accreditation from AMBA).

Cheers!

Hi there

Strathclyde MBA is known for being in the top 100 world best MBA with triple accreditation (AMBA, EQUIS, AACSB).

Please feel free to drop by our center this Saturday for an Open Day, from 11am onwards. There will be much more we would like to share with you.

Thanks

Hi there

Here's the answer to your questions:

1) Whats the total cost of the MBA program? ---> RM65,000 (with 4 semesters installment scheme)

2) Do i need any other qualification besides a Bachelor's Degree? ---> minimum requirements are: age of at least 25 years old, bachelor degree with at least 3 years working experience OR diploma with at least 5 years working experience. Please keep in mind that although candidates meet the minimum requirements, they would still need to go through several assessments by the university before being accepted.

3) How does this compare with Sunway's Lancaster Uni's MBA program? ---> Well, I can only compare based on the FT Global MBA Ranking 2014 where Strathclyde ranked at 73rd (you may check the details here: FT Global MBA Ranking 2014); Also, we are both triple accredited university. You may do some research to find out the differences as I can't be speaking on behalf of Lancaster. If you're available, do drop by our center tomorrow (23 August) from 11am onwards for the Open Day. There are much more we would like to share with you.

Thanks

Hi there

I'm sorry but CDC Management only runs MBA programme from Strathclyde at the moment. We do however assist if you would like to pursue for MIM in UK.

Thanks

Hi there,

Yes it is no doubt that you'll gain a lot by pursuing for an MBA, but it doesn't promise that you'll definitely be a manager or director. You still need to work for it and apply what you learn along the way.

Btw, for you personally, I would recommend to gain more experience in your job now and wait until you have at least 3 to 4 years working experience before applying into an MBA. Most prestigious MBA providers (I am talking about the high ranking, triple accreditations business school here) usually set a minimum requirement of a good bachelor degree (2nd class and above only), with at least 3 years work experience. Anything below will be at the discretion of the university, based on your career profile.

If you're interested, do check Strathclyde MBA, one of the highest ranking MBA you can find in Malaysia. Next intake is in April 2015.

Thanks!

Hi there

This is actually a very interesting question to talk about. At Strathclyde, we have plenty of graduates who started off from a different industry and change completely upon graduation.

One example is from the article published in The Star Postgraduate supplement today,
Mr. Nicholas Fong, who was an engineer when he started his MBA study at Strathclyde, and is now attached to a banking institution in Malaysia as a strategist.

If you like, I can connect you to any of our alumni that has gone through this, and hear from them directly.

Thanks and all the best!

Hi there

Do you mind sharing when did you apply to CDC/Strathclyde and what's your full name (you may PM me too)? Perhaps I can help look into it? Strathclyde doesn't simply reject any candidate, especially not with the numbers of experience you have. Have you been interviewed by the university?

Thanks
