I have finished my first application for Round - 1.

Does anyone know, how long it takes (typically) for HKUST Adcom to revert with the shortlisting ?

Regards,

Abhishek

Hi everyone.
I am planning to apply to HKUST but have a few doubts .

1)I will have an overall experience of only 3 yrs by the time I join. What worries me is that the average work experience for the HKUST class is around 5-6+

2)I am in the tech sector..How good is the tech sector in HK?
Do students find management jobs in tech companies?

Hi All,
I am contemplating applying to HKUST for MBA, class of 2010. Partially interests come from the fact that i have worked in HK for 3 years and absolutely love the city. :-).
My career interest is to work in Asia in general management / operations or marketing. I would like to know how good the course in HKUST is for these fields. Please let me know how the placement is from HKUST in companies like P&G, Unilever and other manufacturing firms.. I know that it is rated quite highly for finance courses but could really not find any information for these field. I came to know that the 2 yr program is quite new in HKUST. Please let me know if this is not the case. If it is, please let me know how does that affect the future (other than the lack of alumni network).

Also what is general profile of students coming into HKUST? I could not find the detail on website.

Many Thanks
Shubhankar

Hi,

I am planning to apply to HKUST B-school.

Bachelors in Mechanical Engineering from India.
Worked in Steel Industry for 1 year in India.
Got schol in Asian Institute of Technology and persued Masters in Design and Manufacturing Engineering.
Worked with Mattel Inc as Process Enginner (manufacturing) in Thailand for 1.2 years.
Worked with Johnson Electric International Ltd, Hong Kong; based in manufacturing plant in China for 1 year.
Moved to Jardine Engineering Corporation, Hong Kong. This company is part of Jardine Matheson and the business in infrastructure development. Currently seconded to Thailand office of Jardine Engineering.
Learning Thai. Have picked up some Chinese words as well while I worked in mainland.

So all my three years of work have been in SE asia and east asia except 1 year in India.

I have presented 2 international conference papers in Chile and Austria and I also have a journal paper to my credit. I have no idea what major should I persue during MBA.

I am looking for a career in consulting in east or SE asia post MBA. I dont think I will be good at finance.

Can someone please guide me to identify what major should I look for considering I have worked in manufacturing industry and currently into infrastucture development industry, which is basically related with industrial engineering.

Thanks
Maharaj
