Which is best Ms( abroad ) or mtech (india)??

Ans: Choosing between an MS (Master of Science) abroad and an MTech (Master of Technology) in India depends on various factors, including your career goals, financial situation, and personal preferences.

If you aim for a global career and are interested in research, an MS abroad might be more beneficial.
If you plan to work in India and prefer a more technical role, an MTech could be a better fit.

You can evaluate your budget and the availability of scholarships or financial aid for both the case. Also consider your comfort with relocating and adapting to a new environment.

My daughter is studying Engineering and she is thinking of going abroad for MS or MBA in reputed college. we all could not decide, which will course be better. Can you suggest?
Ans: Hello,

First and foremost, thank you for contacting us. Your daughter’s career ambitions and passions play a key role in her decision to pursue either a Master of Science (MS) in Engineering or a Master of Business Administration (MBA). While both offer unique benefits, she should make a choice based on her personal goals and the path she intends taking. Mentioned below is an overview of both courses to help make an educated choice:

Master of Science (MS) in Engineering:

1. Technical Know-how: Technical skills and knowledge within a certain engineering discipline are boosted through an MS in Engineering degree. If your daughter wishes to acquire a better understanding of a specific area of engineering and undertake cutting-edge research or development initiatives, pursuing this degree is an excellent choice.

2. Research Possibilities: Research projects, most often being a component of MS programs, they can result in publications and a chance to support modern developments in this area.

3. Concentration: Pursuing an MS program allows one to specialize in a particular engineering discipline, which in turn, can help her acquire expertise in a specific subject.

4. Job Roles: MS in Engineering graduates generally pursue technical positions viz., that of a design engineer, technical specialist, or research engineer.

Master of Business Administration (MBA):

1. Leadership and Management Abilities: Pursuing an MBA program enables one to develop business understanding, leadership abilities, and comprehensive knowledge of different business functions. This proves invaluable for one with an interest in leadership and management positions.

2. Adaptability: An MBA is adaptable with applications in not just engineering but a variety of sectors. If your daughter is thinking of a career in management, consulting, entrepreneurship, or any position that demands a solid background in business, pursuing an MBA is a good choice.

3. Collaboration: With MBA programs often placing a strong emphasis on networking, applicants are provided with opportunities to connect with experts from varied backgrounds and businesses.

4. Entrepreneurship: Pursuing an MBA degree can equip your daughter with the requisite knowledge and abilities required to succeed in the corporate world, if she plans on establishing her own company.

Factors viz., your daughter’s hobbies and interests, future aspirations, long-term career plans, abilities and strengths, and monetary concerns should be taken into account in order for her to make a confirmed choice.

Finally, the choice should depend on your daughter’s personal goals and vigour. Getting in touch with experts in both engineering and business to acquire information about their experiences and seeking advice mighet also prove beneficial.

Hi Mam, Hope you are doing well. I am very worried about my son who is now 12.5 years old and studying in 7th standard in a very reputed school. Since childhood, he has no interest in studies, unless we doesn't seat in front of him, he doesn't study. Every teacher from his kindergarten days upto now has the same complaint that he is doesn't pay attention in class and the result is he doesn't get good marks in the exam. When we scold him for studies, he does it for that particular time only and then get back to his non-interest mode again and start to run from studies. He will play video games, goes to play around with his friends, he will find some or the other reason for not doing studies or homework. The irony is that he is not interested in any sports or any other kind of activities. In every summer holidays, we make him to join some sports or music classes, but there also he doesn't show interest and do things just for the sake of showing. From last year, we have started sending him to tuitions also, but no change in attitude. This year we have found a teacher of his reputed school who is retired and taking tuitions, we are sending him to her and she is charging a big amount for tuitions. please guide how can we change his attitude and make him more serious in any activity he does as he doesn't have interest in anything (we have observed doing everything we can).
Ans: Hello Sunil!!

I am doing great, thank you for asking, God bless you!

I can totally understand when you say you are worried.

Your son is 12.5, he will soon be a teenager. There will be different challenges, I want you to read up on parenting a teenager and be ready to handle him well.

The problem as I see it is that everyone of you, his teachers included have made studies like a burden for him.... and subjected the young child to a lot of anxiety, he just wants to run away form it....
"Every teacher from his kindergarten days upto now has the same complaint that he is doesn't pay attention in class".... this statement of yours... it is the teacher's duty to ensure the child listens to him/her, how can she start labeling a child like this. From a young age your son has been conditioned to believe that he is not not good in studies, he doesn't focus and he doesn't sit in one place. All my sympathies are with your son...every child comes with immense potential and it's our duty as parents and teachers to nurture the child.

The following is what I propose so that we bring him back to loving to learn ( not score marks, that should never be the barometer)-
1. Love your child the way he is now
2. Give him lot of positive strokes
3. Have one on one sessions for any activity you plan for him... let him choose the activity, empower him
4. choose a teacher, who can get along with him and help him develop a positive attitude towards studies and life in general
5. look for a school where they nurture him... not just a reputed one...less number of students and a teacher who is invested in her/ his students,

If you can connect with me, I can help him. Have had many a students in this kind situation.
