For the people with the years of work experience in leadership and executive roles, generally in the age group of 32-42 Executive MBA is preferred. Also, Executive MBA programs are smaller than full-time MBA programs
Whereas Part-time MBA programs are designed for the people who are already working full time and they generally take classes after their work which could be in evenings or on weekends. They don't hold a leadership position yet, they generally fall in the age group of 24-35 and Part time MBA can take more time than 2-3 years to complete. Also Part time MBA is often seen less competitive than full-time MBA.

Hi,
For a working professional, executive MBA is a best option.
1. A full time executive MBA in India prepares professionals for emerging global business circumstances.
2. It provides them with a great deal of experience and excellent cross-cultural skills.
3. It helps one handle emerging issues with a theoretic and practical approach. -
Executive MBA is better. There are many good private colleges for the same. -

7 years agoDear student,
Part-time MBA is not even considered by the corporates or if they do then not much of a weightage is given to it. Now, if we talk about EMBA, after completing the same from a reputed institute, you can get good career prospects and it also helps you to get a salary hike of 25-30%.
All the best. -
If you are already working as many people do while pursuing MBA, then definitely you are getting the practical knowledge and doing part-time MBA will help you to keep your studies and work intact.

An executive MBA is a better option for a working professional because, in part-time MBA, you don't focus much on your studies. -
You should pursue EMBA. -

Well advertised both part time MBA and EMBA come into same functional group of part-time MBA.
But target groups of the above two forms of MBA , so far my knowledge goes , are different. For Part-time MBA any working professional with some years of experience( independent of leadership experience or not )can pursue - where as for Executive MBA , students should have work experience as leader. As core MBA syllabus is covered in EMBA with shorter time duration in accelerated mode, exclusively for experienced business leaders - it is preferable for business leaders to go for EMBA rather than taking part time MBA. -
For a working professional, part-time MBA is good.

I think it's better to for executive MBA rather than part time.
Top institutions have best executive PGDM/MBA programs. It also depends on the financial capacity of individual aspirant. -
Executive MBA shall be more beneficial compared to other programs. In Executive MBA, the student gets in-depth understanding of the subject on a wide variety of aspects. Online MBA providers like NIBM offers one year Executive MBA in online mode. Please visit their website for more.

Hi,
This answer depends on you . But you need to know what the actual difference is :- There are hundreds of accredited MBA and EMBA programs offered in schools around the globe, but plenty of aspiring students do not know the difference between the two. EMBA simply stands for Executive Master of Business Administration, which is commonly misconstrued to be a superior form of MBA study. In actual fact, the two are pretty much equal in terms of cachet and value on graduation but they are delivered in entirely different ways. If students want a more immersive student experience they should most definitely apply for an MBA. Living permanen...more -
