Engineering Students are wasting their Time in Management Studies; they have Another Way to go

@Aditya Deshmukh.

An Engineer in a product based company like CISO, NetApp get starting CTS of 7-8 lpa whereas an MBA from a non-IIM start with 3 lpa in some x/y/z organisation. Similarly if an engineer in a service based company like TCS, WIPRO has lots of opportunities to travel overseas but after doing MBA if you land up in a bank or Insurance sector then you have confined your geographical boundaries. In short, Engineers are wasting time doing MBA if they are not doing it from IIM.

Hii guys!

As the topic engineering graduate are wasting their time in management studies. Obviously, you are right they have many opportunities to do something different. But as we know nowadays too many Engineering colleges are there in every city. That's why no one can value of engineering students. They are good at studies but too many colleges are there not a single campus interview are in colleges. Students can do something different but lack of student has a financial problem. If they place well then they can direct join as a management team.

I also agree with the topic. Most of the engineering graduates think that doing MBA after their engineering is a better way to lift their Careers. There are a lot of things to do after B-tech. One who has a better Management skills always shine.

Although, It is one's personal interest. Engineers are those who lead the society. The leadership and management skills are to be practiced and adopted in their day-to-day life. So let me conclude by saying that before taking every step in life, think twice.

Well I think most engineering graduates in technical fields like chemical and petrochemical choose MBA just because they are fed up of their work in field. Too much exposure to chemicals and sunlight will make you hate this job in ones early years. I am a B-Tech in Instrumentation and was just googling for MBA courses when I found this discussion.

Hi friends,

I am Shaila Begum. Completed my B.Tech. Nowadays all are reading B.Tech. But they are not studying for there future. They only read for their parents or time pass. Then from that how many we study and do any more graduations are waste of time. Firstly we have to know why I'm reading now what is the usage of higher graduation.

Nowadays some people are buying certificates by giving money to the correspondent persons then what is the usage of studying?

But who have greater interest they should compulsory complete their graduation after B.Tech like MBA and another PG for our life settlement?

I am a IITian and aspiring for IIM. Because not just for great packages or a bulk of money. But just for knowledge.

In my opinion, concentrating on management studies is not waste of time for engineers. MBA after Engineering helps a person to grow technically as well as in management. But with no interest in technical, I agree that one need not take engineering. And YES, there are many ways to go for engineers. If they are interested only in technical knowledge, then they are wasting time in management studies just for money or thinking it is something great.

Well first of all there is a huge differences and shortcomings lies in the education system. There is a hype of some professions and institutes against child's interest. Students are not counselled according to their wishes means they are unwillingly made to join competition and be a part of race usually in engineering colleges (many of them) for graduation and engineering seeks core knowledge of the subject. By the time a student could be of acquiring different tastes not mainly in finance and marketing but in any other desired field he/she wishes to be because money is not always the thing.

Hello friends. This is Devender Arya.

Yes I am agree with this. Without technology and management skill. We can not go for to start our firm. So according to me which students have done the B.Tech they can go for MBA after that those wants to start our organization. Because without going these two courses we can't build a company because a company is deal with technology and management.

The thing is today engineering students are capturing maximum jobs in the market. Market knows the value of engineers. Engineers are great problem solvers. Doing MBA, engineers can achieve many opportunities without any saturation as only B.E graduate will led to a saturation one or the other day. Plus MBA is a great option to enhance management skills.
