...Pursing a Masters in Business Administration Management 521 February 20, 2010 Pursuing a Masters in Business Administration Pursuing a Masters in Business Administration (MBA) degree to achieve a personal goal may seem ludicrous to some, but not to the individual who desires to have a solid foundation of knowledge on which to build on. An undergraduate who decides to return to school as a graduate student is investing in his or her future. According to Levy (n.d.), an MBA can open doors for an individual and expose students to the business world in terms of job functions and industry. This paper will present an argument pertaining to pursuing an MBA. Additionally, the “What’s my Jungian 16-Type Personality” assessment will take a look at benefits in pursuing this degree. As a goal oriented individual, the decision to pursue an MBA degree was the right choice. Aside from personal ambition and goals, the decision will enhance my career opportunities, development, and will be a valuable asset. The MBA will also open doors to my personal, professional and financial fulfillment. I have been successful in my current position as a clinical research associate (CRA), and although I have had many experiences, the MBA program will enable me to expand my professional horizons and will facilitate me to acquire a solid business understanding. The Argument People have asked me why I am pursuing an MBA degree since my undergraduate degree is in health administration, and I currently...

...Running head: WRITING AN ARGUMENT PAPER Writing an Argument Paper University of Phoenix Management – MGT521 Instructor: Diane Hunt-Wagner August 20, 2012 Writing an Argument Paper The purpose of this paper is to raise and counter objectives regarding the decision to obtain a Masters of Business Administration (MBA). The impact of education on earning potential, job security, and becoming an entrepreneur will be examined. This paper will also discuss how raising and countering objections has been an aid in my own decision to get an MBA and how I embraced my decision to go back to school. Objections will be raised for reasons not to pursue a graduate degree and referenced information will be sited to support the raising and countering of the content. Why an MBA Raising Objections Business schools have long sold the promise that, like an F1 driver zipping into the pits for fresh tires, it just takes a short hiatus on an MBA program and you will come roaring back into the career race primed to win. After all, it signals to companies that you were good enough to be accepted by a decent business school (so must be good enough for them); it plugs you into a network of fellow MBAs; and, to a much lesser extent, there's the actual classroom education. Why not just pay the bill, sign here and reap the rewards? The problem is that these days it doesn't work like that. Rather, more and more students are finding the promise of business schools to be hollow. The return...

...1. How long have you known the applicant and in what connection? If applicable, briefly describe the applicant's role in your organization. Please comment on the frequency and context of your interaction. (250-word limit) Joe was selected to join JPMorgan 1 year ago. As Managing Partner, I am up-to-date on his position of excellence. I conferred with his direct supervisors to complete this recommendation. Joe is an outstanding professional, one of the most promising associates we have taken on. His input is creative, insightful and I trust him to manage our more complex tasks. Joe is highly motivated and driven by an amazing passion to succeed. He embodies a perfect mix of the attributes we look for in a consultant: personal impact, great analytics and excellent problem solving skills. He couples this with his insatiable interest in serving clients with the best possible solution. I insisted on writing this recommendation myself, as I see Joe as one of the promises of this firm and one of the great future business leaders his country. It was important for me to convey my overwhelming support of his candidacy. Upon completing my own BSc from Stanford and my PhD from Cambridge, I understand the value studying in an international setting can provide and I am very interested that this opportunity be given to Joe, a man who will know how best to use it. If Joe stays on the same trajectory there is no doubt it my mind that Joe will be sponsored for an MBA by the firm, and...

...Trends in management education point towards a paradigm shift in as far as the tendency in rise in applications amidst an improving economy is concerned. Ruchi Chopda brings you the details Unlike historically, when MBA applications trend countercyclical to economic conditions, this year, data collected by Graduate Management Admission Council (GMAC) suggests a significant change from previous post-recession patterns. Even as the global economy shows signs of recovery, applications to MBA programmes are rising after a slump of three years. According to the 2012 Application Trends Survey, 51 per cent of graduate business and management programmes surveyed confirmed receiving more applications than last year. Though the growth is displayed in applications across a variety of programme types, including part-time, online as well as specialised master's degrees, it has majorly been fuelled by application gains among online and distance courses. Region-wise, programmes in Asia-Pacific and Central Asia reported the strongest growth in volumes for full-time MBA programmes. Ashish Bhardwaj, regional director, South Asia, GMAC, elaborates, "Looking at different regions of the world, 32 per cent of full-time two-year MBA programmes in the US reported application increases, 37 per cent in Europe reported application increases, 80 per cent of all MBA programmes in China reported application increases and 83 per cent of all MBA programmes in India reported application increases.

...country’s commitment to a market economy a successful reality. Due to cope the tremendous and far-reaching changes occurring in today’s conditions, the department introduced again Executive MBA Programme In 2002.Furthermore, after an experience of 12 years with MBA and that of 4 years with EMBA, the Online MBA Programme was introduced in 2007 and has been in progress. External and Internal Environment reflects on MBA programme One of the core objectives of MBA programme is to ensure a steady stream of men and women trained to meet challenges managing modern businesses in an increasingly competitive environment. The study of management traditionally focused on a closed-system view within organization, such as leading, organizing, motivating and controlling. Even these views are accurate, but not complete to be effective managers. To be effective, management of an organization should monitor and respond to the environment as an open system view. The external organizational environment includes all elements existing outside of the MBA programme such as International, Technological, Social cultural, Legal and Political, and Economic condition that influence the organization.
