Thus, demand for such professionals will always be there. The global employers especially look for MBAs with IT qualification. So, if you pursue the B. Tech as well as MBA degree from a reputed college, you will have a lot of career opportunities.

High Salary: Salaries depend on various factors, however, graduates with engineering background with MBA usually get better salary offers than others.

Cons of Pursuing MBA After B. Tech:

Unrelated jobs: A lot of people do B. Tech and then get into a completely different career such as Banking or insurance that are not related to their educational background. However, if you are someone who wants to deliberately change your core from B. Tech to MBA, this is a great option.

High Competition: The numbers of students who are choosing the combination of MBA after B. Tech are many. Thus, unless you pursue both the degrees from a reputed college, your chances of getting a good job are very low.
