XLRI Xavier School of Management

Dear aspirant,
Glad to meet you.
If you are confused between MBA or MTech, the best way to decide is highlighting your career goals and interests. If you want to study a business degree after completing BTech, the MBA is the right choice and if you aim to specialise in a certain Engineering specialisation, then MTech after BTech is the best choice. While both these courses require students to crack certain entrance exam like GMAT for MBA and GATE for MTech, there are various alternatives available for such exams. There are also many universities in India and abroad which offer MTech without GATE such as Aligarh Muslim University (AMU), University of Hyderabad, Jamia Milia Islamia, Pondicherry University, etc. or MBA without GMAT.
Further, the best part of MBA vs MTech is that if you have opted for MTech to gain a specialisation in engineering, you can always opt for an MBA afterwards to combine your technical expertise with business skills.
