I think 60+ but less your EPF will be less.

Don't use ur EPF to pay for MBA lah.

60+ is very expensive

some of my friends took strathclyde when they just started only 20k+

I can imagine how much discount they reaped because they took opportunity to sign up when it just began here.

If your time and finances as well as management experience and academic credentials qualifies you, the best MBA you can get yourself into is the NUS exec MBA.

Taught over 15 months 6 2week blocks of intensive classes at various parts of SE Asia and will set you back at least S$150k.

Some modules are taught by instructors from UCLA and Harvard.

Great for those in IT and Finance line.

I did the Nottingham Uni MBA. Did 9 of the modules in KL, 2 in Ningbo, China and 1 In Nottingham.

Instructors come and go and then come again. Many rubbish ones from India, Iran and Africa as well as some AMDK ones that one open of their mouth you know the only reason they’re here is skin color. Some of them go from one uni to another, 1 of them came from Sunway, then went to Taylor’s and then Nottingham and then went to Sunway to be the program director for Sunway’s Lancaster program and is now back in Taylor’s now. Some good local instructors that had vast industry experience that were better at tying theory to practice, some also had the ability to bring in industry leaders to conduct a lecture and allowed us to grille him or her. There were also 2 instructors that taught the same module at all 3 campuses as well as a guest lecturer that coordinated the entire module.

Overall wasn’t necessarily a bad experience but can’t say it helped me all that much in my career as 3 months before graduation I already had a promotion to an upper middle management and leadership role that I would have had with or without the mba. Got to know quite a few persons from the program including someone that’s now a big shot in Infosys….. oh yes any of these international programs be prepared for there to be loads of CECA, mid east and PRC candidates, some are excellent and some will make you question why you joined the program.

Wow now even US$20k can’t get into a decent mba program.

UTAR, MMU, UPM offer part time MBA (3 - 5 years coursework study). 30-50k.
But I believe they need bachelor degree in any field and CGPA of >2.5.

When I was shopping around for MBA programs I did look into that Strathclyde program, it is a very well established program and a very good one too as it is a triple accredited program. The other ones I looked at were Nottingham uni and Sunway-Lancaster program.

None of it were 100% perfect in every way as all had some downsides to them. Academics wise the Strathclyde program is far more challenging and interesting. Facilities wise Sunway had the best of everything but candidates for the MBA were not too interesting as too many young cikus who were basically either a nobody or some big shots' brat. Nottingham did not have the best of anything but it delivered the one thing I looked for which was an internationally focused (by that I mean not just from India and Philippines) candidates and faculty that were somewhere on the rise in their careers.

I read mine at Nottingham, 8 modules in KL, 2 in Nottingham, UK and 2 in Ningbo, China. In fact I started my first 2 modules in Ningbo and ended it with 2 modules in Nottingham. I would say it delivered good value for money, above average academic quality and had the chance to meet as well as get to know several persons of importance, there were 2 GLC heads, several top management persons from developers, some persons with strong ties to the armed forces and some investment bankers. It was not the projects we did that mattered but more the after class drinks which brought the most of the benefits.

Ultimately having the MBA was just one part of it, what you do with your time there and how you use the connections you build from there would be the ultimate prize.

That's another way to waste 11k.

Is it still only 11k?

Seems to be one of the few places that hasn't upped fees for the longest of times.

In malaysia, you can skip master from degree to PhD. But you can't skip degree from diploma to master.

You need to have a degree first.

Degree is essential, master is optional bonus.

That is the reason ppl go for oum, wou or any inline mba courses. No time!

At the end of the day, most ppl dont use all the knowedge in their mba. They just need to PROVE to employers n colleagues that they know business, finance n more. If no certification needed, anyone can claim they know n learn from wikipedia

Yes, to be honest, MBA is just another cert to prove to our employers that we are at the next level and MBA is also good to network and make new friends!

After reading a few posts, I feel that if you want to network then go for networking events and if you want to learn there are online courses nowadays.

There is some underlying psychological issue here,. The need for constant validation of tall tales and constantly wanting caucasian blood into his various personalities

And when busted i believe he concocted a reason why he duped. TLDR it was multiple persons using the account as part of some long con and the reason why all these multiple persons were flagged using the same device was they all remotely logged into a server to post in lyn

And after taking /k so seriously to do all the above he later played the you guys take /k too seriously and vanished

I am a diploma holder, already working for 19 years and I want to have a MBA to further my career in my company

I have heard about OUM and WOU, but their MBA seems like doesn't carry much weight

Other than these 2 universities above, anyone knows is there any other university that offers MBA courses for working adult?(weekend or online class) My budget is RM50k and below for the whole course, preferably can finish within 3 years (max)

Hi TS, I'm in the similar situation as you. Did you manage to get your MBA?

I'm in engineering industry.
