If you are going to be able to participate and take advantage of what this university does for its students, then yes, I think the MBA is worth it. The university often does case study competitions, industrial tours, and business conclaves, where all students have the opportunity to meet and hear from real-world professionals.

The placement departments offers mock interviews that can really help prepare students for final placements. After my course, I have friends who were placed as management trainees with a company.
