Which is better a MBA in Project Management or go for a (MPM) Masters in Project Management degree?
I am currently enrolled in a PMI recognized school and working towards my MBA in Project Management however im not a big fan of accounting. So im just wondering if the MPM degree is more limiting in terms finding a job versus the MBA.

Look at http://officialmbaguide.org. There is no such MBA. Universities don't grant MBA in information systems, or MBA in finance, or MBA in marketing. MBA means Master in Business Administration. The MBA is a general degree preparing students for management positions in any level of a business, up to CEO. MBA students study accounting, finance, marketing, management, statistics, economics, strategy, policy, and other courses. Many MBA programs offer concentrations in these and many other fields, but that amounts to only 2-3 courses in your chosen field in the second year of study. Many students avoid a concentration and take a variety of elective subjects to gain a broader background. By the time you finish the first year you'll be able to decide which concentration interests you. You don't become a specialist in a field with 2-3 courses. It generally takes a year of concentrated study. That does not mean you could not earn the PMP designation after an MBA with a project management concentration. It is a tough 4-hour test but it can be done. The MBA is not like an MS degree that concentrates study in a single field and prepares students for high level staff or research positions. The MS typically requires an undergraduate education in the field in which you want the MS, or a closely related field. A finance major does not get an MS in chemistry, and a biology major does not get an MS in accounting. If you want to specialize in a particular field other than business administration, such as finance, marketing, operations management, human resource management, or a non-business field such as public health, or public administration, you should get an MS degree in that specialization. MBA programs accept students in any undergraduate field. They prefer students who do not have a business background because they give you the business training but they cannot provide the broad background that managers should have. I have taught MBA students with degrees in Music, Medicine, Dentistry, Law, Psychology, Political Science, Chemistry, Biology, Engineering, and many other fields. Most MBA programs prefer students with 2-3 years work experience after the first degree, but many accept students right out of college if they have good grades and a high GMAT score. Some MBA programs are designed specifically for new college graduates without work experience. MBAs with good grades are in high demand and they command good starting salaries. The Official MBA Guide provides a lot of information about the MBA degree and MBA schools and programs. It's a comprehensive free public service with more than 2,000 MBA programs listed worldwide. It allows you to search for programs by location (US, Europe, Far East, etc.), by concentration (finance, marketing, aviation management, health management, accounting, etc.), by type of program (full-time, distance learning, part-time, executive, and accelerated), and by listing your own criteria and preferences to get a list of universities that satisfy your needs. Schools report their accreditation status, tuition cost, number of students, class sizes, program length, and a lot of other data. Schools provide data on entrance requirements, program costs, program characteristics, joint degrees, and much more. You can use the Guide to contact schools of your choice, examine their data, visit their web site, and send them pre applications. You can see lists of top 40 schools ranked by starting salaries of graduates, GMAT scores, and other criteria. It's the best service available at http://officialmbaguide.org.

Masters Degree in Business Management
Masters Degree in Business Management?
Would having this degree come in great use when raising a family and needing a good job that can support anywhere from 1-3 kids + a wife? I know the degree is good, but what are my chances of getting a good corporate job somewhere like a bank ... any help or advice? Thanks

the chances are higher.....having ur bachelors these almost means nothing...if you want to make the big bucks go for the MBA
2
I have an MBA myself. It places you above the pack of BS guys. You will get larger pay and more prestige. Many times director and above positions have an unwritten rule you must have a Masters. .
3
More education is always better, and people with Master's usually make more than people with a bachelor's only.
4
I'm going for my masters this fall simply because masters degree will get me somewhere. Bachelors degree in Information Technology means nothing with little or no experience these days. Employers want the best of the best. Masters degree is the new bachelors degree, bachelors degree is the new associates degree, and associates degree is the new high school diploma. At least it seems that way anymore.

Most of the event planners I know (quite a few) got certificates in event planning from a college. I'm not sure where you live, but I know a school like NYU (New York City) has a "certificate" program, which consists of about 6 courses in the subject. At the end you get a certificate, which from a school like NYU, has some meaning.

It will make a great deal of difference where you got the degree. If you have a degree from Oxford, fine. If you have a degree from the Moldavian State Agricultural College for Women that will be much more problematic. It will also matter whether you just have the degree or if you have the degree plus business experience. You might want to inquire directly with the office of admission of the university or universities you are interested in. Or shop around a bit at www.aucc.ca which is the main portal for all things to do with university education in Canada. Good luck.

The country of the MBA program is really not that important as much as the accreditation. These three accreditations are very important - AMBA, AACSB and EQUIS. Which ever program you apply to, make sure it has at least one of these accreditations. Then you need not be worried about the programs recognition.

What can I do with a Masters Degree In Industrial Management Technology
What can I do with a Masters Degree In Industrial Management Technology?
I have a B.S in Comp Sci, but with the way things are now in the tech industry and jobs being shiped out i am considering a master degree. I was initially considering going for a second b.s in Information Systems because it gives me some business background also but i think to really stay ahead now a masters in most likely better. I came across this program and still doing more search on it Industrial Managment or Industrial Technology with a Management and quality control concentration. it basically combines management skill with technical skills such as stat quality control, project management, engineering cost analysis, industrial psychology, prob & stat, design of experiments and get to take 3-4 MBA corses also. It is very interesting but not sure as to what i can do with it or it its is only tailored to manufacturing enviroment only?

This masters degree would be more focused on the business aspect of everything. This would be your field if you wanted to work for anyone who manufactures anything. You would occasionally do some coding or some CS problem solving, but most of that would be left to the grunts with bachelors degrees in robotics tech or industrial engineering (lowest form of engineering, beneath civil engineering). It wouldn't be very good outside of manufacturing, but the MBA courses would be helpful for any kind of business. If you really wanted to step up your technical skills, then you could go for a masters in Electrical and Computer Engineering, but then you would have to catch up on at least 2, maybe 3 or 4 semesters of math, plus circuit theory, embedded systems, and digital circuit design before you would be remotely ready for the masters program. I'm going for a bachelors in Electrical engineering, and I've got two whole years worth of specialized EE classes with no electives to go (just one extra math and one extra CS if you can count those as electives, and nothing else). There is also the masters in CS, and that might catch you up further on theory about some of the more interesting new developments in computers. But if you're really good at CS, meaning that you didn't just work off of your group's success in team projects and got A's, then chances are that your skills probably won't be outsourced as easily. It's IT that has more to worry about being outsourced.
