<p>I have a question. After undergrad and lets say I do 2-5 years of work and I want to get my MBA. Do I have to have a business type degree such as Management, Finance, Accounting, Marketing, etc. to get that MBA? </p>

<p>Could I for example in undergrad, major in Computer Engineering, then let's say get a job at Microsoft and work there for a few years in a non-management position, could I go back and get my MBA??</p>

<p>Or is it pointless to get an MBA with a engineering degree? Couldn't I just get my master's or PhD in the engineering degree or would a MBA have more benefits?</p>

<p>Is an MBA only worth it if you have a Business-Economic type degree?</p>

<p>Engineers are some of the best MBA students. My undergrad major was mathematics and I graduated near the top of my class.</p>

<p>Engineers often go back for their MBA. If you want to continue doing computer engineering in a few years then an MBA is probably worthless. If you want to move into management or switch careers then an MBA is far more valuable than any graduate engineering degree.</p>

<p>Ok, what types of jobs are available with Business/Economics degrees? iBanking?</p>
