Hello, I am 42 year old single man from Mumbai. I have completed B.E Mechanical and a part time MMM from Mumbai. I have completed nearly 17 years of work in India and Gulf countries in Technical sales for HVAC products & projects. I am now wanting to make my career in sustainability and am contemplating a Masters in Sustainability from Cranefield University UK or some other good university as possible. I have my immediate family settled in UK who also want me to try there. Need you advise and guidance, since there are doubts in my mind because of my age and what opportunities will be there after the Masters course for me. Is age a factor for making a career in UK for say next 10-15 years?. Or Will student visa at this age be a problem? Any other suggestions or options is also helpful.

Ans: Hello!
Pursuing a master's degree in sustainability could be a great career move, and your previous experience in technical sales for HVAC products could be valuable in the sustainability field. Age should not be a barrier as there is a growing demand for sustainability professionals in various industries. Also visa is not an issue for studying in UK at this stage, if you can strongly convince the university regarding your goals and future plans in SOP/ Credibility interview.

I want to go to uk for my MBA I'm currently pursuing my graduation in international business please give me some advice
Ans: Hello,

First and foremost, thank you for getting in touch with us. I am happy to hear that you are currently pursuing your undergraduate degree in International Business after which you intend pursuing an MBA in the UK. I would like to let you know that taking into account the prominent business institutions as well as the country’s multicultural environment, opting for an MBA in the UK can be a fruitful choice. As you are presently studying international business, I believe you most certainly already possess a solid understanding of global commerce, which will prove beneficial throughout your MBA degree. Nevertheless, I would recommend that you carry out a comprehensive research pertaining to the various MBA programs provided by universities in the UK prior to applying.

As a first step, I would suggest that you take into account the program accreditation, course outline, experience of the faculty members, as well as possibilities to acquire hands-on experience, viz., internships or consultancy engagements. Not just that, evaluate the fields of specializations that each program has to offer in order to make sure that they resonate with your professional objectives in the domain of international business. Remember that establishing ties in the business environment can greatly improve your employment opportunities after completing an MBA, and for that reason, I would suggest that you explore the networking possibilities that each school has to offer.

Moreover, throughout your stay in the UK, adapt yourself to the various cultures. Your academic journey will be greatly enhanced and you will be able to develop a global mentality, a vital asset in the interconnected corporate world of today, through interacting with people of diverse backgrounds and experiences both within and outside of the classroom. Lastly, in order to acquire guidance and knowledge pertaining to your goals, I would recommend that you get in touch with mentors or students who have previously followed same avenues.

Remember, your MBA program in the UK can greatly enhance your career objectives in international business if you prepare carefully and work hard.
