All, can I make a summary, correct me if I am wrong
Manchester (Sunway), Rm84k, 1 yr, part time
Nottingham, RM 55k++,1 yr,part time,full time

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.

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

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

Rendezvous
Those who has do some reserch may know you will only get the ranking of ancient old ranking from Asian Inc. This is some years back and defiantely not a good guidance.
Ranking for Malaysia is not existence in TopMBA ranking.
So if you have no knowledege in this, don't be rude. We have enough uncivilised forumers although they are minorities, and we definately no need one that not come here to seek or provide constructive info,opinion or view.If you want to make chaos, just ignore this thread to others place.
To others forumers
First hand info from those study in local MBA cyrrently or before is the betetr way as the ranking is yrs ago and can not refelcts the current condition.
I believe although of the lower quality (depends which MBA u compare with), there are ppl that interested local MBA due to some reaons I listed
1. Lower tuition fee (some even below RM20k)
2. location (depends on the place u work or stay)
3. Doubt of oversea MBA that taught in collge. Yes, MBS at SUnway and University of Nottingham not in this category, but others MBA from oversea from college not certainly higher quality.
4. No need GMAT. Insead, LBS, NUS, Warwick Business school, all require high GMAT score. Even NUS need a 600, others at least above 650.
No one here to arguing local MBA is not 1 tier, I think all the people here know that. No argument. But how bad or how good it is, this is what we want to discuss here.

Lets continue this thread with good discusiion manner

UTM IBS
http://www.ibs.utm.my/module.php?module=courses#fee
UM
http://ccm.um.edu.my/umweb/fpp/MBA/Overview_MBA.pdf

UTM IBS does provide weekend MBA. UM and UPM doesnt provide weekend classes.
UM provide more minor, UPM is too general in my opinion and UTM IBS is concentrate in technological MBA

Added on August 5, 2008, 9:51 pmOn sunday I have attend a MBA preview form MSU, Management Science University which is formerly call PTPL
I found that this new MBA which is only about 2 yrs plus of their first batch is surprisingly exceed my expectations.
Besides normal lecture, they also encourage innovative teaching.
Encourage student think out of the box, they will have class outside the lecture hall, such as survey or activities in shopping complex.
They also build up their students networking recently.
What surprise me is
1. they teach u presentation skill beside the syllabus
2. teach u the manner when in western dining, business dining etc
3. teach u play golf (with minimal cost)

The founder of MSU MBA, is also former MMU MBA founder.
The classroom and facitilities INｋＬsentral, I have to said, is no more better than an ordinary tuition center.
However, this MUS at least not sell only teaching method of thename of MBA like the other public Uni MBA.
Is this MSU as good as it said in preview I am not sure, if someonestudy in MSU MBS, kindly share with us

Besides, MBS and University of Nottingham, which is the next best MBA in Malaysia?
How about best value (money and quality).
I just wonder how can u guarantee the quality of local college MBA is as good as the oversea partner? Accredicted yrly will do that?

CDC management of University of Strathclyde course fee can not find in their website. I email them also no response. ANyone know the course fee?
I agree with Tishaban that the career services must b good to help student. But I think local uni and college is very lagging behind in this comapre with famous business school

I would said, for MBS, University of nottingham and university of stracthlyde is too costly even it is as we think more quality assured.

OK, let us check which one is the next best MBA which is not over RM 30k but yet is best value (quality and money)?
Honestly, those MBA which is advertised in papers is not famous at all and i doubt they are roaster University

which MBA you are taking?

MMU is quite good in reputation for local MBA. How you heard about UM, UTM or UPM?Is their lecturer good?
MMU MBA is slighly higher course fee..around 25K right?

Guys, which MBA you think is best value (money and quality)
1. Segi (University of southern queensland), RM 19.5k +_AUD5.7k
2. Inti (a. RMIT, RM 45k)
(b. University of Heartfordshire, RM30.5k)
3. Stamford (Lansbridge University, RM ??, belwo 25k but yet to comfirm)
4. MMU (RM22k)
5. UM.UPM,UTM (RM19.5k to RM22k)

PLease judge the best value in term opf high education quality, reputation and also return of Investment.
If you study MBA in the above college, please advice

yes, you can check by google inti MBA. May be it is included the exam fee
Nottingham is around RM 56`58k??

any advice?

My budget is 25k to 30k max
I am Ok with coursework and exam base, but would prefer weekend classes than weekday.
I am not able to get consistenly leave to attend Friday afternoon class.

But the concern is how much the standard of the MBA I listed differ?Yupe, the course mate prefer with certain working experience so that the discussion within class is better in sharing experience.
thanks for ur guidance.tinkerbel

Stamford college, Lansbridege University, RM 25k

any comment?
