Which are the top international universities from where you can do your second MBA, given that you already have done one from a top IIM?

I have done MBA from IIM Ahmedabad and want to do another MBA (most probably an executive MBA). Which are the prospective options and what are their requirements?

    There are over 4,000 colleges and universities in USA, so this is not an easy question to answer. Obtaining an entry will depend on your academic and career background. For example, competition to enter Harvard for pursuing an MBA from is very high, so you will require top grades and GMAT score (along with other non-academic related criteria).
    My suggestion is, you research and find the university you wish to study to (if you are seeking a top MBA college you can research rankings such as in US News and World Report). You can then determine for which university or college you meet the criteria and apply accordingly.

    How many years of work experience do you have? It ask for average 5 years of work experience and for an executive MBA. However, you can look for other specialised courses rather than MBA. It depends on your interest. Since I have seen a few students who opted for such specialised courses like MS in public policy or international relations or affairs after graduating from IIMs and having hands on experience.

Hi.

IIM Ahmedabad (IIMA) does not offer a dedicated Master's in Hotel Management like some hospitality institutes or Institutes of Hotel Management do. However, it does offer master's‑level management programs that are relevant if you're interested in management roles in hospitality or related sectors. 

 

The closest regular master's‑level full‑time programs at IIMA that could be relevant for someone wanting strategic, managerial, or business leadership roles (for example in hospitality chains, tourism firms, service operations, etc.) are:
