Which is better a MBA in Project Management or go for a (MPM) Masters in Project Management degree

Which is better a MBA in Project Management or go for a (MPM) Masters in Project Management degree?
I am currently enrolled in a PMI recognized school and working towards my MBA in Project Management however im not a big fan of accounting. So im just wondering if the MPM degree is more limiting in terms finding a job versus the MBA.

Look at http://officialmbaguide.org. There is no such MBA. Universities don't grant MBA in information systems, or MBA in finance, or MBA in marketing. MBA means Master in Business Administration. The MBA is a general degree preparing students for management positions in any level of a business, up to CEO. MBA students study accounting, finance, marketing, management, statistics, economics, strategy, policy, and other courses. Many MBA programs offer concentrations in these and many other fields, but that amounts to only 2-3 courses in your chosen field in the second year of study. Many students avoid a concentration and take a variety of elective subjects to gain a broader background. By the time you finish the first year you'll be able to decide which concentration interests you. You don't become a specialist in a field with 2-3 courses. It generally takes a year of concentrated study. That does not mean you could not earn the PMP designation after an MBA with a project management concentration. It is a tough 4-hour test but it can be done. The MBA is not like an MS degree that concentrates study in a single field and prepares students for high level staff or research positions. The MS typically requires an undergraduate education in the field in which you want the MS, or a closely related field. A finance major does not get an MS in chemistry, and a biology major does not get an MS in accounting. If you want to specialize in a particular field other than business administration, such as finance, marketing, operations management, human resource management, or a non-business field such as public health, or public administration, you should get an MS degree in that specialization. MBA programs accept students in any undergraduate field. They prefer students who do not have a business background because they give you the business training but they cannot provide the broad background that managers should have. I have taught MBA students with degrees in Music, Medicine, Dentistry, Law, Psychology, Political Science, Chemistry, Biology, Engineering, and many other fields. Most MBA programs prefer students with 2-3 years work experience after the first degree, but many accept students right out of college if they have good grades and a high GMAT score. Some MBA programs are designed specifically for new college graduates without work experience. MBAs with good grades are in high demand and they command good starting salaries. The Official MBA Guide provides a lot of information about the MBA degree and MBA schools and programs. It's a comprehensive free public service with more than 2,000 MBA programs listed worldwide. It allows you to search for programs by location (US, Europe, Far East, etc.), by concentration (finance, marketing, aviation management, health management, accounting, etc.), by type of program (full-time, distance learning, part-time, executive, and accelerated), and by listing your own criteria and preferences to get a list of universities that satisfy your needs. Schools report their accreditation status, tuition cost, number of students, class sizes, program length, and a lot of other data. Schools provide data on entrance requirements, program costs, program characteristics, joint degrees, and much more. You can use the Guide to contact schools of your choice, examine their data, visit their web site, and send them pre applications. You can see lists of top 40 schools ranked by starting salaries of graduates, GMAT scores, and other criteria. It's the best service available at http://officialmbaguide.org.

Getting into the medical management field with a general business management degree

Getting into the medical management field with a general business management degree?
Currently I am enrolled in college to obtain my associate's degree in business management. I figured I would start off with a broad degree in the management area as to not limit my choices. I was wondering though that once I obtain my associate's degree if I would be able to get into entry level management at a health care facility while I either obtain my bachelors in general business administration, or health services administration.

How will I make use of a Marketing/Management degree if there are so much competition out there

How will I make use of a Marketing/Management degree if there are so much competition out there?
Because there are so many people out there that are majoring either in Marketing or Management, it's so hard to stand out or differentiate yourself from others. The worst part is that there aren't any reassurance that you'll get the job you want after you get your degree. Now it's either you stand out or let them eat you alive. Is it true that people with a Management degree have more of a variety of jobs to choose from and are more flexible because it's a broad field, and people with a Marketing degree are stuck with jobs only pertaining to the Marketing field and are less flexible? At first I wanted to major in IT, but then I felt like my chances of breaking into that industry is very slim because of comments about a lot of jobs being offshored and plus I'm very much a beginner, which makes me ignorant about the industry. Today companies look for IT people with a lot of experience with computers, which I certainly don't have. I'm confused about whether I should major in Mktg or Mgmt.

Have you read the book, RICH DAD, POOR DAD? it will tell you not to get a job, create jobs. People mainly think that the way to make millions is to work up the ladder. That's why there are so many poor people. Millionaires use their marketing skills to market their companies. I think you should find a subject that teaches you to be a millionaire.

hello there buddy... i see that you are having a hard time in choosing what degree to choose so that after you graduate you will have a job, the answer there is simple, in choosing the degree that you want, know first what you want, try to examine yourself first, try to ask open ended questions like where am i good at? do i like doing this? am i satisfied with what i am doing? before you come up with a decision, this questions surely helps... I have been working for a year now and to tell you honestly, its not "landing a job" that you should think, but "what would be your career goals" after you land a job, if you are thinking of my first predicament, well we working here in a company thinks on what will happen on our careers, we often asking ourselves "am i going to do this stuff for the rest of my life?" Having a job is only a objective but it is not your main goal... try to re-focus your concerns.... I can see that you will have a good career in any field that you want as long you are dedicated, committed, discipline and hardwork...Good Luck and Best Wishes pal!

I have a degree in Marketing and have worked in at least 2 marketing agencies. But from my experience, turnover is high because a lot of agencies lose clients after one project, so already I've been laid off twice. I also notice that many marketing agencies hire interns and recent college grads. There's not a lot of older professionals in a marketing agency, giving me the impression that they only want young people for cheap labor and they eventually lay off employees when they get more expensive.

It taught me to see human beings as a resource. Now I can look upon them as tools of industry and business without having to acknowledge their humanity. I can reduce people (workers) to basic spreadsheet equations measuring the relative short term gains of business without being bothered by concern for their livelihood and their families. Business education is a great way to lose your compassion and humanity.
