Answer AJ,
1-whats your opinion to about MBA distance learning program , this time I couldnt wait 2 yrs to complete an MBA then searching for job , I want to study with applying ? so if I ll take this path I ll find a job in any engineering consulting service company as entry level if I ll satisfy I ll take an MBA even if distance learning or anything else , whats your opinion also ?
MY PERSONAL OPINION ABOUT MBA [DISTANCE LEARNING]
-it is useful.
-but you need to work twice harder
-due to the lack of interaction, you need some tuition or mentoring
in some subjects.
-you must put into use every piece of knowledge/ skill to gain
the benefits.
-the books supplied with the course are sometimes below the
standard of regular MBA.
-the employers generally do not treat MBA dist
equal to MBA full time.

to do my own business ????????????????????????
YES, YOU CAN.
BUT TWO MORE THINGS ARE REQUIRED
1.FINANCE.
2.TAKING RISK.
HERE, KNOWLEDGE/ SKILLS ALONE ARE NOT SUFFICIENT.
================================================
3- is doing small business even if simple project need business planning for instance ( Importing ear muff & defender for well know company in USA or china or being their agent) - ( or being an agent or franchise for fiber optical service for well know multinational company) or I may suffice with fesability studies only ?
FEASIBILITY STUDIES ARE INDICATORS ONLY AND DO PRESENT
THE FULL PICTURE.
BUSINESS PLAN PRESENTS FULL PICTURE, INCLUDES
-market
-marketing
-organization
-finance
*balance sheet
*cash flow
*profit and loss
etc.
THE BANKS/ SUPPLIERS ETC WOULD ASK
FOR THE COPY OF BUSINESS/ MARKETING PLAN.
============================================

COLLECTING DATA OF ANY KIND IS EXPENSIVE.
1.If you collect information, on your own, the companies may not
provide , as you lack creditation.
You have to join the market research association for creditation.
or
You have to buy off the market research firms.
=====================================================
5- can you tell me from your point of view if someone has good theoritical information about some engineer issues , illustrations , ideas , vision beside lot of business info specially in business managment , international business(import/export , franchise) , marketing , investmet basic , economy basic
A- which positions can collect between the two knowledge ?
IF YOU HAVE LEANING TOWARDS MARKETING,
YOU WILL GO FOR '' MARKETING MANAGEMENT'' POSITIONS.
---------------------------------------------
IF YOU HAVE LEANING TOWARDS OPERATION,
YOU WILL GO FOR '' OPERATION MANAGEMENT'' POSITIONS.
-------------------------------------------
IF YOU HAVE LEANING TOWARDS OWNING/ MANAGING,
YOU WILL GO FOR '' BUSINESS MANAGEMENT'' POSITIONS.
--===========================================
B- is that good basis to start a small business after choosing market niche ?
IT IS AN USEFUL BASIS ,
BUT AS I INDICATED EARLIER, YOU WILL FACE
THE '' RISK'' PRESSURE.
