MBA VS MA International Business Management in Germany - Differences in Job Prospects

H

Hi All!!!

I have been seriously thinking of doing a masters in Business Management ( Mostly In International Business).

I am Currently in India and have a Working experience of 9 Years and designated as a Business Manager - have done my Bachelors in Engineering and except 1 year, all my experience is on business Development.

Due to some personal financial commitments i cannot afford a huge tuition fees and because of which i have been looking at doing a masters in International business in university of applied sciences (many courses have no tuition fees) rather than some of the top ranked b-schools in Germany.

following questions are clouding my head before making a solid decision, Request your help on this pls.

1) Are Foreigners considered for Sales / Business Development Jobs in Germany, also i am 30 years old now. Am joining the German language course from next week onward.

2) What is the value difference between MBA in a B-school and a Masters (M.A or MSc in business management) in university of applied sciences - on job prospects & pay perspective.

3) How easy it is to get a Part time job while studying. Also myself being a working professional, will i be able to do a part time job in corporate companies.

Am really looking forward for your suggestions on the above.

I don't know much about Germany but I'll attempt to answer your questions:

1. Yes of course foreigners can get jobs in Germany, so long as they have the correct visas and met the job requirements etc. Age wouldn't matter.

2. I don't know the answer

3. I imagine it's very easy to get a pt job whilst studying - on UK visas most students can work 20 hours per week and I expect it's the same in Germany. You need to ensure you still have enough time to dedicate to studies though.

3.a. Yes you can get a job in corporate company - whether it's a good job or not will depend on your experience and expertise.
