Hi, Selecting the specialisation for an MBA degree is always a tough decision. Dual specialisation always helps to achieve your dreams in two different sectors and majorly it expand your options in the industry. So I would suggest you to go for both Marketing and Finance. MBA in Finance helps students to straddle the management field with the cutting-edge financial technology innovation and its application the area of Banking, Finance and Insurance. The Programme will enable students to have an in-depth understanding of the future of money, markets and transactions, as well as the mental tools and frameworks required to predict and leverage future trends. Jobs after MBA in Finance: Accounting Manager, Chief Financial Officers, Cash Managers, Manager Consultants, Investment Banking Associates, Credit Managers & Specialists, Financial Analyst, Corporate Controllers, Finance Officers & Treasurers, Insurance & Risk Managers, Investment Bankers, Investing Sales Traders & Associates. MBA in Marketing course helps students to observe and understand the need of the customers, develop fast experiments and prototypes with users and develop prediction markets. Students will gain cutting-edge insights about the sources of customers satisfaction and brand personality. Jobs after MBA in Marketing: Brand Manager, Account Manager, Research Manager, Sales Manager, Business Development Manager, Marketing Analytics, SEO Manager. The student should have the right focus and attitude to decide the career goals and work specializations. Also consider the return on investment that the course promises. This in turn depends on rankings, acceptance rate, faculty, academic culture and career services associated with the chosen institute. At, IILM University, Gurugram have freedom to choose electives from more than one domain as well. So if your college offers this kind of flexibility then must exercise this option. This will help you to take a balanced decision. Also one must give equal importance to all the aspects of management because when you climb up the corporate ladder, you are required to perform more than one function and thus the knowledge of different areas come into play. Good Luck!
