How to choose a major in MBA (1)
Don't chew a bunch of bananas ... Is Nancy stupid? ザ12: But many of them don't know that MBA covers a wide range of fields. For example, the MBA of Sun Yat-sen University School of Management includes not only enterprise management, but also global management, modern financial management, marketing management and e-commerce. Therefore, if MBA students' choice of major direction is unreasonable, the future development space may be limited. So, how do MBA students choose their major direction? I think it can be considered from three aspects. On the one hand, finance is usually regarded as a synonym for fund management. How an enterprise makes use of all available financial resources, how to develop or evaluate various investments, and how to find other ways to make money outside the industry all belong to the category of financial work. Because of this, enterprises pay more and more attention to the position of financial personnel in management. From this point of view, finance should become a professional field favored by MBA students. For MBA students majoring in finance, the future employment prospects are very broad: First, they can engage in financial management in the company's finance department. Large enterprises with sound systems generally have their own financial departments to handle financial and investment affairs. The main responsibility of financial management is to help enterprises know whether they have made full use of resources and earned the maximum profit, and how to make the financial structure of enterprises more sound. In the business philosophy of modern enterprises, financial managers must be able to create unlimited profits with limited resources. Two, you can work in the loan, savings, credit, corporate or personal finance, trust, real estate and other departments of commercial banks. Third, you can go to an investment bank for employment. The main job of investment banks is to assist enterprises, governments and individual investors to make profitable investments, and sometimes they will also participate in investment cases, mergers, asset freezing or restructuring cases of large enterprises. At present, investment banks in new york, London and Tokyo select the best MBA graduates from top business schools every year. For MBA students, taking the road of commercial banking or financial management is less risky, but the development prospect is limited; Joining an investment bank has the best chance to get ahead, but the risks are naturally great, and the time pressure, uncertainty and crisis awareness to bear are also the greatest. It is an out-and-out high-risk and high-return industry. The second aspect is accounting, the scope of work involves: personal finance, bookkeeping, annual revenue and expenditure summary and analysis, tax filing, company cost accounting, company annual budget and so on. Due to the rapid development of information industry in recent years, the accounting field has been further expanded, and the accounting information system has been developed, making the functions of accounting more powerful and extensive. Accounting is the most basic function of all management functions, and almost all enterprises and institutions are indispensable. Especially in the decision-making process of top management, the importance of accounting is more obvious. Therefore, in recent years, the management's dependence on the accounting function has increased, which means that there is great room for development in this field in the future. For MBA students, if they major in accounting, they should have at least the following two development directions after graduation: 1. Accountants, certified public accountants, auditors, comptrollers and so on. 2. Management consulting. MBA graduates majoring in accounting can work as accountants or assistants in corporate accounting departments, such as financial analysts or auditors. Personnel engaged in the above work will participate in enterprise resource allocation, establishment of management information system, financial planning and control, etc. , which belongs to the advanced category of enterprise management. The main business of many large accounting firms is to provide financial management consulting and services to the business community, so they need to have certain financial and accounting professional strength, and MBA students who know both management and financial knowledge are undoubtedly the best choice. The author thinks that for MBA students majoring in accounting, working in the management consulting department of an accounting firm should have a good development prospect. Compared with the accounting industry, the work of consulting industry is much more vivid, and there are more opportunities to get in touch with the outside world, which can give full play to personal management expertise.
