<p>I'm a computer science and engineering undergrad in india</p>
<p>Would it make sense to Pursue MS&E (Columbia, Stanford)
or Engineering management ( Duke, Dartmouth etc. )
Before Pursuing an MBA at a Business School?</p>
<p>Typically these programs can be done right after undergrad.
My plan is to attend one of these programs, work as a consultant/analyst (management ,IT,tech).
Get a good work experience,
Save up money ( I can never make the same money for b-school tuition in India at least not with the current exchange rate) and apply for business school at an appropriate time in a few years with good work experience.</p>
<p>Would it exalt my b-school Application and chances of admission or would it seem redundant since all the above courses are conducted at the university’s respective business schools and have a management related course structure</p>
<p>I have seen other ppl from india do it , (dartmouth MEM + MIT MBA, Duke MEM + INSEAD MBA )
but there aren't many....</p>
<p>Would it lower my chances of a great business school?
As in Seem redundant?</p>
