You can now have a six figure pay with your MBA degree



MBA is one such degree which is famous among the learners all around the globe. In the year 2008, the MBA’s in New York had a great time. Most of the management degree holders had already got a job and when Lehman Brothers filed for bankruptcy in the mid-September in Wall Street, the MBA graduates were already settled well at work and hence, they didn’t face any crisis. So, it is easy to say that way back in 2008, MBA’s had good job options in hand. The graduates from the Harvard Business School started with salary of around $14,261. Also, the ones from the School of Business had an average salary or $140,771.

MBA graduates in  Minessota, Emory and Duke’s University have got rise in their salaries!



But soon, the global fiscal crisis happened and the job market as well as the pay package of the MBA’s faced threat. For the MBA graduates last year, they got salaries less than their counterparts back in the year 2008. But there are some of the universities which have managed to acquire a good job for their MBA graduates. For example, the Goizueta School of the Emory University, the Carlson School of the Minnesota University, and the Fuqua School of Business in the Duke University have increased their salary as well bonus for their MBA graduates by 14.8%, 13.6% and 11.2% respectively.



The MBA graduates from these universities even got bonus payments and the Fuqua’s 2012 class of MBA graduates started getting $136,461 approximately as their starting salaries. This sum is excluding the travel allowances, stock grants, tuition reimbursements, or any other yearend bonuses. All these data is extracted from the U.S. News &World Report and was published in the annual ranking and the MBA programmes got listed as the best full-time MBA courses in the U.S. One of the facts about proposing these courses as the best one is that the graduates get job soon after getting the degree and also the starting salaries are very satisfying for them.

Being in the U.S. the average pay package for MBA graduates in 39 universities are of 6 digits!




There are 39 different B Schools in the U.S. which offers great salary to the graduates. This six figured salary structure is what is most attractive for the learners all around the globe. If we look back in the past, only 5 universities of these 39 universities used to acquire the graduates with a 6 figure pay package. But now, all of these 39 universities assure the learners handsome pay package for the learners. Who could have known that the learners from the Dartmouth Tuck’s MBA have got better paid than the ones from Wharton or Chicago Booth or even the North Western? Also, do you know who got the next highest paid after Harvard and Stanford? It’s the MBA graduates of MIT Sloan. They have got last year, according to a report, an average salary and bonus of $139,035.

Students Selecting Online Classes For A Promising Future!



Observing the surging popularity of online education among the new age learners, a number of universities are coming forward to add an online module to their usual curriculum. With a record of enrolling hundreds of students every year, online classes are striving hard to cater to the learners all over the world. Moreover, countries from developing regions are also showing their eagerness to join the revolution of e-learning to remove the educational issues from their societies with the help of technological advancement.

Learning online is a special and rational way of obtaining knowledge. The three prime reasons for it being preferred over traditional education system are:




No further hassles - Online classes allow people to enhance knowledge who are unable to attend universities because of either residing miles away from a reputed institution or have a too busy schedule to attend classes. Online classes commonly allow their students to take classes at their convenience. People with professional commitments or familial obligations fail to pursue an academic career through regular classes. But today you may attend classes on weekends, during evenings and even at late night hours. An internet connection is now at your disposal to let you enjoy learning when you feel like.  




No added costs- Monetary predicament has always been there as one of most serious issues that kept a large section away from pursuing further education. Learning via internet subtracts commuting costs, boarding charges, food spending and many additional expenses, that are unavoidable in regular courses. Apart from that, distance learning’s mission to reach out more to educate compels constant innovation. Their effort to enlighten more people results in more affordable courses for the learners from different class.




Career enhancer- Learners from different classes, sectors and countries are taking up online courses to boost their professional career as it hardly requires any compromise with job or family. Although varied courses are being offered and chosen, demand for professional and employer-based courses has elevated to a great extent. 

Demand for trained workers is on the rise and obtaining certified knowledge without career break has never been so easy; now everybody wants an impressive credential to achieve a better position in the company through a degree online. This is why a lot of students are opting for MBA courses online. Now you can hone up your managements and administrative skills through world-class institutions and that too without any career break. 

Especially since UK considered one of the most reputed places to obtain an international qualification, Online MBA courses in UK are getting response from billions of students across the world as it is giving them an opportunity to achieve a dream career and enhancing the leadership skills. Now anyone hoping to achieve a UK qualification from an online international business school can do so in an affordable way. Moreover, these online courses in business studies are giving huge confidence to the experienced workers who are deciding to start up something of their own after pursuing those degrees.

So, is it the end of campus learning?




Although the reasons are good enough to turn you away from regular learning courses, it would be really unintelligent to think that campus learning will cease. Audio-visual lessons are great tools for effective education but it cannot replace campus learning system. The importance of live or face-to-face instruction will always be there. Computers cannot replace tutors; experts think it’s funny to think that way. A section feels it would be much rational if it is considered as a supplementary system rather than treating it as an alternative medium. They think blended learning is the future and the option combining the best features of online and offline classes will be admired by the most in future.


Well, if face-to-face instruction will exist or students will be more attracted toward the blended learning remains a question; but growing popularity of online education is the present. And whether or not it will be able to remove the traditional learning form is not important now. It is getting more students eager to complete their courses and its winning strategies are gaining remarkable response is the fact. So, if traditional education system don’t mould themselves according to the situation and emerge as a more adaptable system, chances are there that the dearth in popularity will grow severe and online may appear as the principal system of acquiring knowledge very soon.
