is Masters in Finance after MBA possible?

Question

I am currently an engineering student. My cgpa is very poor(2.9+ out of 4). My goal is to do masters in Finance from a well reputed university with a scholarship. That's why I am planning to do an MBA after my graduation with Finance major. Will it help me to pursue my goal?

Hi,
Of course, but most of the subjects in the curriculum would be the same, and MSc will offer less practical knowledge than an MBA, the only difference would be you’ll have to write a dissertation the MSc. If that is what you want, go for it. But you could also go for a PhD.  Both degrees can lead you to positions in investment banking and corporate finance. MBA programs have a broader management focus with an emphasis on leadership, while an MS degree enhances your knowledge and skills in specific areas which then, in turn enhances your career and job potential in that specific area. There is some overlap but the Masters in Finance program focuses more tightly on finance and financial markets, while an MBA, is more diverse, covering general aspects of business not dealt with in the finance program, such as human resource management and operations management. Some universities offer a MBA and a Masters in Finance as a joint degree.
