    Dear Chaitanya, I would go for MBA HR any day out of these two !

    This is one single trait you must develop for not only pursuing MBA in HR, but also career afterwards in the same field.

    Dear Chaitanya,
    Among M.Sc and MBA, I would recommend you to go for MBA. Secondly, since most of the colleges offer dual specialisation and you have done B-Tech as well, better go for dual specialisation of HR with IT.
