Life Beyond

My two cents

You might think that UM&G is a course for the future, but by all means, the future is now! Our metros have gone crazy. Mumbai and Delhi are virtually crumbling under the pressure of their own weights. Expertise in this field will give your resume the edge that is missing from most other run of the mill MBA degrees. What you need to understand here is that companies are being flooded with resumes that are exactly the same. An advanced degree in such a niche field will differentiate you from the herd. Sure, this is still a sunrise sector, but before you know it, the demand for talent in this field will skyrocket. I leave the choice of career to the readers wisdom.

All the best!
