I am totally new to the MBA program.Background: Having been in U.S. for ten years. 7 years' U.S. pharmaceutical experiences-chemistry. Working in the top three pharmaceutical company in the world as a R&D scientist. Totally chemistry background. Due to the family reason, will move to HongKong next year. Since there is no big pharm. R&D in Hongkong, and also not willing to just work as a technician in the university lab, I am considering to get a MBA degree and change the career to the finance area.

Can anyone here kindly advice my chance to be admitted and what's the chance to get a finance or consulting job i HK after graduation? What is the salary over there for the entry level? Many thanks in advance.

Thanks so much for your reply. I am new to this field. In U.S., there are lots of scientists in Pharmaceutical company going for part-time MBA, and after the graduation, they may change the research work to project management or perform consulting related to pharm. industry in some consulting companys. Not sure about HongKong, are there such kind job there? Since already over 30, I think if doing something not related to my previous experience, I do not have any advantage and hard to compete with the young people now.Greatly appreciate if anyone can provide any information or any website about the MBA jobs in Hongkong which may consider pharmacutical experience a plus. Also, welcome any suggestions about which MBA area I should go for if I pursue the degree.
