From my point of view studying for a foreign degree in India is not worth.It wont help in getting a job abroad or in India as.What the universities want is only money?
More over training in U.K and U.S.A are really structured and they need follow certain guide lines.People who are teaching in a foreign university should have Phd in the subject.
The way of Indian education and getting a job is different from that of foreign countries.In U.K OR U.S.A when a student graduate only their work experience counts not the degrees.
Why people who are going abroad is doing well when they come back is that when they go abroad they also need to follow some guide lines.So the way in which they grasp things is structured.
Among the top 100 MBA universities only 13 are from U.K. The best being Oxford(20).My advice is that before joining any institue thoroughly enquire about it because some colleges are not popular in the country(U.K / U.S.A) itself.Education is also a business!!!
In the US a degree is merely only to show that one has actually studied in the field they state on their resume. The real clincher lies in your on-the-job capabilities - can you do the job, can you perform? Other than working as lecturers and specialty jobs in some large corporations, at most firms, actual ability is more important than where one gets a degree. Maybe in India, a piece of paper counts more than ability or capability - maybe this mindset needs changing too.
I am currently pursuing the PGDSM MIT course from SP Jain and Virginia Tech University. It is a dual degree course.
We get Post Graduation Dipoma in Systems Management - PGDSM from SP Jain Institute of Management and Research and Masters in Information Technology - MIT from Virginia Tech University, USA.
The faculty from Virginia Tech fly down to mumbai to teach their course. Faculty from SP Jain teach the management part. We are the second batch and will be be placed in September first week. The first batch passed out with 100% placements.
The third batch has already joined and the fourth batch admissions will start soon. This is an excellent course for someone who wants to have a blend of management and technology.This course has also been well received by the industry.
You have not delt with 1.Couse curriculam,Faculty from Home town or abroad,How indian Media permitted to advertise the status of foreign universities without the consent of Govt of India,How the IIMs and well known B-schools amd Universities annonceing tieups without geting permission from Govt of India and finally Why Print media or electronice media not providing the international ratings of the universities to the Indian students and Parents?
I have studied MBA from TASMAC (University of Wales -- Pune.The programme cost around 3000 Pound Sterling which is around 2.5 Lacs + Accomodation Expenses.The programme was an intensive ine of around 1.3 Yrs Duration.THe degree is recognized globally .However the placements offered by the institute are not very attractive. The course was taught by permanant and visiting faculties(All Indian faculties).
I wold rate the prospects after studying for a foreign degree in India as average.
