An MBA (Master of Business Administration) is one of the most popular postgraduate choices for African students in India. It builds leadership, management and business skills that employers value across Africa.
Why do an MBA in India?
Indian business schools teach in English, cost far less than schools in the UK or USA, and expose you to one of the world’s fastest-growing economies. Many programmes include internships and live projects with Indian companies.
Popular specialisations
Finance, Marketing, Human Resources, International Business, Operations and Supply Chain, Business Analytics, Healthcare Management and Entrepreneurship.
Typical entry requirements
A recognised Bachelor’s degree in any field, your transcripts, a valid passport and proof of English where required. Some universities ask for work experience or an entrance test or interview. Requirements differ by university, so we check them for you.
MBA or PGDM?
Universities award an MBA degree, while autonomous institutes often award a PGDM (Post Graduate Diploma in Management). Both can be strong. What matters is that the programme is properly approved and recognised in your home country.
