What would be a good choice for a Computer Science engineer with 3 years of experience in data management / reporting in a large Indian private bank? Choices are post-graduation in: 1. Information Management in S P Jain (full time 2 years) 2. Operations & Supply Chain Management in IIM Mumbai (full time 2 years) Both post-graduation topics are of equal interest and both institutes are highly reputed, hence the dilemma. There is little or no background in Operations and Supply Chain Management while past education and work experience is related to IT / Data Management. Kindly advise.

Ans: Let him chose the course based on his interest. Data Science and Digital Marketing are good areas to be in. Let him get relevant work experience for him to have a higher chance of getting a job post his course completion.

Ans: It is advisable to write GMAT and try to do Executive MBA from one of the good IIMs or XLRI. These colleges do have good placements and it could help your career. Usual requirement for these courses is minimum 5 years of work experience

Ans: Prefer KALINGA-B (CS with SE). Please ask your son, will he be comfortable with the Job Description of CS with System Engineering which is given here. JD of System Engineer in Brief here: • Managing and monitoring all installed systems and infrastructure
• Installing, configuring, testing and maintaining operating systems, application software and system management tools
• Ensuring the highest levels of systems and infrastructure availability.

If not, better to go for CSE with UPES. Whatever Institute / University & Branch your Son chooses, he should keep upgrading his skills from his 1st year itself till his Campus Placement during his last year, from LinkedIn, Coursera, NPTEL, Internshala etc. and / or any other online platforms, recommended by his College Faculties, to be COMPETENT among other Students.

All The BEST for your Son’s Bright Future.
