Ya. Quite Prestigious. 3 accreditations. 1 of the top 50 MBAs in the world selected by the UK government for qualifications of PR upon completion. But the cost is high as well. Approx. RM 52k. You can also opt for the summer school in Scotland if it's within ur budget.

Looking to pursue an eMBA....

It really depends on which university he got his MBA in Japan. If his MBA is from either one of the followings, he should not have any problem getting an OK job:

1) International University of Japan
2) Waseda University
3) Hitotsubashi University
4) Ritsumeikan University

Even before they graduate, they would have been given a place in top multinationals in Tokyo.

Sometimes, too bad it is not only the place but the business school that counts....

Planning is always good but planning too far ahead even before you finish your 1st degree, that seems too far to comprehend now. Better to finish your pharmaceutical course first. Then come out to work for a few years b4 going back to business school. You might change your mind after that. Also, postgraduate courses are evolving now. Maybe, a MBA is not so interesting anymore in the near future as you could end up taking MSc in Pharmaceutical Business....

I mean network of multinationals that comprised of people that worked inside there. If he is looking for a job, be it Malaysia or elsewhere, he will stand a great chance in overseas Japanese subsidiaries. Otherwise, his MBA will not help much.

I'm looking to pusue an eMBA from an OK university. Anyone knows about good Executive MBAs in town?

I would assumed the prestigious MBAs that you are talking about are well known business schools, which are also accredited by international quality assurance institutions, ie- AMBA, AACSB or EQUIS.

The answer is yes for AMBA accredited universities and no for AACSB or EQUIS but some well known biz schools still require you to have work experience because it enabled you to fully participate and share your ideas.

I saw the CeMBA requires a CeMAT test. Anyone knows is it the same as GMAT? Is that compulsory or what?

There is another new initiative by our government - Asia e University. The eMBA looks OK thou but seems lacking of information now.

http://www.aeu.edu.my/

Ranked top 5 modern universities in the UK but errhmm....the ranking from Times Good University in the last few years says otherwise.....top 5 from below.

Got better in 2008. Ranked 99 out of 113....

Added on August 26, 2008, 2:53 pmSounds sad but the only option is for you to fork out more $$$ for a conversion or top up either to RMIT or UniSA since these are all Aussie universities.

Yeah! chgchksg128.... if I have the luxury, I'll definitely won't go for online MBAs. Seems like the AEU is a big initiative but looking very quiet. Still new and very hard to gauge what kind of stuffs they are offering now.

You need minimum 3yrs working experience and a GMAT. However, if i'm not mistaken, they can substitute that for an interview.

Anyone knows any of the MBA programs in KL has the followings?

1) Strong Networking activities
2) Students - comprised of top management / business people/ international students
3) Strong Alumni

UNITAR, UUM or UKM are not accredited institutions by EFMD
