请问JD\MBA的要求是不是特别高，虽然我是2011申请MBA，其实对法律非常感兴趣，如果申请这个joint degree是不是需要法律背景，或是跟普通MBA比，更希望要什么样的学生，我是在银行三年工作经验。谢谢

Hi JustinGuo

就我所知，JDMBA的同学GMAT的平均分和GPA是比MBA高一点点，但是相差的不远。申请是不需要法律背景的，但是英语的要求会较高(both oral and written english)，还有，你要有非常清楚的原因说明你必需要法律跟商业两方面的知识。说白一点，对法律有兴趣还不够，adcom常常说，JD在JDMBA里不是一个Good to have，而应该是有这样的Need+Urgency。要申请JDMBA最重要的是在申请里平衡法律跟商业两方面在你的计划里的重要性，目标必需明确。而且在Kellogg的申请里你只可以选一个program，如果JDMBA不成也不可以转到2-Y MBA application (except you reapply the next season, not next round)，风险还是不少的。

Good Luck!

Hello nhelpn,

Actually Kellogg didn't separate a "Health management" MBA but it's only a general full-time MBA you applies and get admission. And since people can claim more than 1 major, it's hard to tell how many students are claiming health management MBA. We got nearly 30 chinese ethnic admits for Class of 2012 (1-Y 2011 / JDMBA 2013) for Full-time MBA. Healthcare related MBAs are quite hot now in US, so the prospect is generally positive but I cannot comment further since I'm not from related background.

Good luck!

非常有帮助，我有两个问题：
1、Technology Industry Management Program是MBA的一个方向吗，还是一个独立的master program呢？
2、年龄超过30是不是劣势呢，还是说现在的年龄范围只是一个申请人年龄分布的反映，而不是录取委员会意志的反映？

您好！

有说法是MMM的申请者如果未被录取会自动放入MBA的pool中，从而没有风险。

这种说法是正确的么？谢谢！

Zonia,

我对KELLOG的JD/MBA感兴趣，可以加我的MSN吗？我想结合自己的个人情况向你请教下。

Dear Zonia,

could you or your friends introduce engineering management and its main courses.  and elaborate a little about the application of engineering managment in real world, and more pragmatic question is what will be an expected career path?  a similar question is what do you think is the chemistry between MEM and MBA and what benefit NU want to get out from such program?

Thanks,

Hi 51xt,

I'm not MMM student, so it took some time for me to ask around for your question. I hope these answers can help:
1. MEM and its main course:
   MEM: Engineering management is a course with a primary focus on product design and operations, project management and innovations, this course is particularly suitable for individuals who has the aspiration in technological industries, product development and supply chain operations. The courses are categorized as Core, Design electives and Operations Electives, the following are a couple of courses in each category.
   Core subjects: Designing and Managing Business Processes, Design Thinking
   Design electives: Management of Product Design and Development, Introduction of New Products and Services, Innovation Frontiers
   Operations electives: Computer Simulation for Risk and Operations, Logistics and SCM
2. Real world application of EM
   With a combined focus on design and operations, EM has a wide application in real world, from tech / manufacturing company management, high-tech consulting, PE / VC to starting new enterprises for new products or innovation.
3. Career Path
   This really depends on your original background and personal aspirations, but from what i heard and saw, people from MMM pursue a really wide spectrum of jobs from really frontline manager in design / operations to backend strategy formulation.
4. MMM v MBA
   Altho I didn't chose MMM program, I would think the dual degree program is giving you an opportunity to advance your technical knowledge and management skills at a reasonable timeframe, particularly if you are planning to go into careers which requires understanding on technology, product and operations. MBA is great to help you develop the softskills but MMM is just as good to develop your hard core toolbox. It is a great program and gave you the best of both worlds I'd say.

Hope these answers help!
Good luck!
