MBA in India Remains the Country’s Top Graduate Course
The MBA remains the graduate degree of choice in India according to an ‘MBA in India’ report released by IndiaCollegeSearch.
The results from the education platform and university search engine also underline that the popularity of the MBA in India continues to grow, especially in the country’s most populous cities.
IndiaCollegeSearch’s data stems from the two million annual searches carried out on its website, which it is then able to break down by city, age and gender for those registering or signing in with the site.
Based on an analysis of these results, the three most popular MBA in India destinations are New Delhi, Bangalore and Mumbai respectively, with Bangalore being the city of choice for international students.
Contrary to global precedent, the MBA in India attracts a far greater level of interest from fresh graduates than from seasoned professionals. In a sign that the MBA in India is often seen as the best way to advance job prospects from the outset of a person’s career, the highest interest came from an age-range of 21-24. The IndiaCollegeSearch data also points to a marginally higher interest among prospective female students.
Finance is top specialization in IndiaCollegeSearch report
The most popular MBA courses were those pertaining to the finance sector, particularly those laying the foundations for entry into investment banking and security firm roles. After this, prospective students were most commonly drawn to course specializations in human resources and marketing.
Continually rising interest in the MBA in India has come with the qualification’s increasing cachet with the country’s major employers. MBA opportunities continue to grow in India according to the latest QS Jobs & Salary Trends report. Although multinationals with a presence in India still tend to hire from leading international business schools, local recruiters often turn exclusively to domestic graduates.
Meanwhile, MBA salary earnings which, according to some in-country reports, experienced a relative slowdown in 2013, look set to rise once more, particularly after the country’s general elections in May.
