SPECIALISATION SWITCH

I completed a Diploma in Production Engineering and a Graduate Diploma in Materials Management. I have 25 years experience and want to pursue a one-year executive MBA in US or UK. Please list recognised institutes that offer the same. Also, do international universities offers degrees in engineering via correspondence?

Have a look at the executive MBA offered by University of Chicago, Thunderbird School of Global Management and Northwestern University in the USA, London School of Business in the UK and IE Business School in Spain to see whether it suits your require
ments. University of London in the UK and University of Phoenix in the US offers distance learning courses. 


SPECIALISATION SWITCH I am pursuing economics from SRCC, Delhi University. I do not wish to pursue majors in core economics. I plan to switch to financial economics. I don’t want to apply for a course that has too much of theory to study. Is my decision right? Please list courses and international institutes that offer the same. What are the career prospects in this field?

Have a look at the programmes offered at University of Warwick (MSc in Finance and Economics), University of Manchester and
City University (MSc in Financial Economics) in the UK and Bond University and Monash University in Australia to check whether it interests you. Finance has very good scope globally. No one can ever guarantee you jobs after you graduate. If you network well, you may get a job after you graduate. However, job prospects are better if you graduate from a well known university. Firms in India sometimes recognise students with an international qualification and may give employment preference to these students. 

 
CAREER CONFUSION I am a class X student. I wish to complete ISC (arts), and want to make a career as a journalist. However, my parents feel I
should choose medicine since I am good at biology. I find it difficult to choose since most family members are doctors and engineers. Does the arts stream form a good base for journalism? Is the science stream equally good?

Before deciding on your choice of course you must first analyse your aptitude and your future career aspirations. There are many options to choose from. Every field of study will have many lucrative and successful career options. It is imperative that you choose what you are most interested in. I would recommend that you appear for a career aptitude test. This may help you make an informed decision on the field to pursue further. Have a heart to heart conversation with your parents and explain to them your interest.
