Hello,I completed my graduation (b.com) this year securing 44%.I am 21yrs of age.I have a total work ex. of around 5 yrs, with marketing & business development as my forte.I want to pursue my masters in either marketing, finance or a dual specialization of sorts, because having said that marketing is my forte financial markets are of my core interest.My dilemma is that I can't devote my 100% time to academics, thus m looking for part time i.e. week end batches, & also at the same time the course should carry significant weightage in the corporate world.I m looking forward to the MASTERS PROGRAM IN BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION with specialisation (a week end program for a span of 24 mths) offered by ITM EEC, MUMBAI. I don't know much about this institute & the standing of this program so need ur help apropos same.I kindly request you to guide & advice me further as m totally perplexed coz i am nt able to figure out the apropriate program n the appropriate university & also attributing to the fact that I haven't came across a course that provides specialization in both marketing & finance or say if it is possible to do both the course 1 after another eg. first I complete masters in finance or financial markets n thn masters in marketing or vice-versa.I am keen to do the same from one of the premiere most institues, if possible but at the same time I wan't to complete the same within a period of 2-3 yrs starting from now.
