MUM need residency for their DL MBA !

I had requested MUM.edu for furthur details about their Distance MBA.. Here is their reply..

Dear Manjutah,

I'm very glad to hear you are interested in our distance education MBA program, additional to the criteria list Ada e-mailed to you, there's a prerequisite to become a distance education student: students who want to get their MBA degree through Distance Education need to come to M.U.M. and enroll as a student at least for one semester in order to become a distance education student. Only then you can shift to the distance MBA program. You can either enroll for the part-time or full-time MBA for that one semester. Please e-mail me if you have other questions.

IS this really a DL MBA??? senior members.. any thoughts?

 

I tried to transmit them with out writing them down, but it dint work. I don't know beans about MBA's but this looks a little dubious.

 

The thing is, MUM subscribes to a life theory that they are very serious about. My guess is they want students to visit the campus, so they can be indoctrinated on this theory.

Dubious? not in my opinion.

 

Manjunath:
Maybe I'm biased, but if this school were in my own general religious tradition, and every page about a business administration program were equally saturated in religious verbiage--much of it carefully trademarked, which would be unusual in my tradition--I would be fairly suspicious about the utility of the degree outside of circles that accepted the verbiage completely and at face value.
Having been taken to task for my earthy peasant vocabulary on another thread, perhaps I am simply a sullen son of the soil, unable to appreciate the finer things in life, unrefined, uncouth, unprim, improper. Perhaps accreditation is all that matters. But if marketability of oneself armed with a degree from a given school enters into the picture, then a forecast of other people's perceptions may be in order.
If you are an adherent of the religious tradition that gave rise to this school, then its usefulness to you would, of course, be increased to the extent that it fostered your own religious contentment. As I have found, however, the outside world doesn't always appreciate or "get it."
All best wishes to you from the Humble Carpathian Peasant.
