Should I opt for MBA or pursue M.Tech after completing B.Tech in civil engineering?

For several B.Tech students planning to pursue higher education, it is primarily a choice between master of business administration (MBA) and master of technology (M.Tech) programmes. While both qualifications offer good placements and a stable career, the decision should be a well-calculated one. While an MBA prepares you for generalist roles and opens your avenues in non-technical industries, an M.Tech qualification offers you plush jobs and a freedom to take your love for technology to the next level. While both these career options are stable and rewarding, current trends indicate that students prefer MBA over M.Tech. Besides opening various employment avenues across industries, an MBA degree gives students a chance to build a promising foundation for their career. The difficulty level and rigour associated with an M.Tech degree also adds to the popularity of MBA in the student community. Hope this will help. Good luck.

If you are interested in research and want to stay in technical field, go for M.Tech. Kindly, note that placement is not good in M.Tech except in IITs. On the other hand, from job point of view, MBA is good. Still, try to get a good placement after completing B.Tech. Work for 1-2 years and then plan for higher studies as top colleges also take work experience into account while preparing the merit list.
