Subject: MBA in Shipping and Logistic Management
Date: 11-Oct-2007
Question: Sir/Ma'am, I am in second year of graduation. After my graduation I want to do MBA in shipping and logistic management.

Sir, could you tell me what is the future of this field?
Are these MBA hired by shipping company?
Are they paid good salary?
In which field would they set these MBA i.e what kind of work are they required to do? and
What is the job prospect?

kindly, reply as soon as possible.

Answer: Just like computers, management is also extended to every aspect of our lives. Academy of Maritime Education and Training has launched a new MBA programme in collaboration with Tamil Nadu Open University based in Chennai, India. The MBA course with Specialization in Shipping Logistics Management is delivered through distance learning / E-learning mode.

Since not many management institutes give specialization in Shipping and Logistics, typically the companies hire a general MBA and train them on their own processes.

One can get managerial positions in Shipping Companies, in Agency Houses, Clearing and Forwarding (C&F) Firms, Export/Import Houses, large manufacturing and trading concerns, related Government departments.

It would be advisable to be focused in what you are doing presently.

Hope that helps.
