Should I opt for part-time MBA or pursue full-time MBA?

Dear Aspirant, If you are a working professional and have more than 3-5 years of experience then you should go for Part-time MBA to excel in your current organisation. On the other hand if you are looking for switching your career and have less than 3 years of experience then Full-time MBA is ideal one for you. Being an alumnus of LPU I would prefer LPU. LPU focuses on the overall growth of the students. LPU is one of the best private universities in the country with best curriculum, world-class infrastructure, modern facilities and highly qualified faculty. It has around 25000+ Students across the campus in different professional Schools. LPU offers more than 200 programmes Management, Hotel Management, Computer Application, Engineering, Architecture, Design, Commerce, Fashion Technology, Pharmacy, Physiotherapy, Paramedical Sciences, Biotechnology, Microbiology, Biochemistry, Education, Physical Education, Films, Animation, Fine Arts, Performing Arts, Sciences, Arts & Languages etc. I suggest all students do an MBA course at LPU. Placements: Placements offered by the LPU for MBA course are very good. The minimum salary package offered is 5 LPA, and the highest salary package offered till now is 42 LPA. Some of the companies where LPU students for MBA are placed are - AMAZON INDIA SOBHA REALTY TRIDENT GROUP VODAFONE FLIPKART CAVINKARE PVT. LTD. ASIAN PAINTS BERGER PAINTS NEROLAC PAINTS MOODYS ANALYTICS LOREAL INDIA PVT LTD FEDERAL BANK HINDUSTAN UNILEVER LTD. GODFREY PHILLIPS INDIA LIMITED H & R JOHNSON LIMITED HAVELLS INDIA LTD. HDFC BANK HETTICH INDIA PVT LTD ICICI BANK ITC LIMITED MARICO LTD etc. If you are looking for industry oriented academics, practical based curriculum, professional corporate culture during the college life itself, and better placement in any fortune company, then Lovely Professional University- LPU is totally worth it. Good Luck !

In a full-time programme, the benefit is largely in the face-to-face, campus experience. With university life at your fingertips, you can take classes, join clubs, spend lots of time at social events, and launch and/or attend events to learn about different careers or industries. Often, business school can be a place where people make lifelong friends, or even meet future partners. Many programs offer students a summer internship, and chance to explore career options and get real life experience. In the second year, the recruiting process takes center stage with events and interviews lasting several months. In a part-time programme, you take classes at night and on weekends, alongside a full-time job. Most programs offer students one or two classes each semester. There isn't usually an internship option, and while the clubs and events coordinated by the full-time programme are open to part-timers, they are less of a focus. Critically, the employment and recruiting process is less of a focus but part-time students do have access to recruiting events.

MBA programs that require students full time and physical presence on campus are called full-time MBA. All other type of MBA programs, which do not require full-time presence of students on B-School campus are part-time MBA programs. Part time MBA are created specifically for professionals with work experience. Part Time MBA provides students with the same foundation in key management concepts and disciplines as in a two-year full-time MBA. Part time MBA course work is built on the basis of that students will have diverse and extensive work experience by virtue of which they will able to related to management theories and concepts. Mode of delivery of the programs can be distance learning, weekend classes or combination of onsite and other means of delivery of learning. Major difference in delivery of Part Time and full-time MBA is pedagogy. Full time MBA are taught by extensive case studies and group work whereas Part-time MBA has more of lectures. Full Time MBA students have easy access to teachers and fellow students for discussion leading to better learning. Full Time MBA provides environment for overall development of student. Full time MBA are able to avail campus placement facility which is missing in part time MBA.
