good university in Boston

[Julka Boston]

need opinion: I'm looking for a good university in Boston, major: business administration. I have Masters from university outside the US and wanted to transfer(confirm degree). Would appreciate your advise or to hear from somebody who have done it before in Boston (or just bored and have opinion on everything):-)
p.s sorry for English, tried to experiment with translit button, but realized i'm not that good at that ( read very bad).

[Дядя_Федор]

Да откуда университеты в Бостоне...
Лучше Гарварда и нету ничего...
Деревня-с.

all right: I guess I have to confess: I'm not really that rich to go to Harvard nor that lucky: "This year 75 students were admitted from over 1,000 applicants". any other ideas?

transfer and confirm are two different things.

[Spartacus]

"to transfer a degree" - это значит поступать в ВУЗ по статусу "transfer student". Например, у вас есть мастер в бизнес администрации, из вашей страны, и вы хотите получить местный (американский) мастер или "MBA". Но для этого надо сделать "evaluation" - to confirm your degree, пользуясь услугами известных/проверенных компаний. У каждого ВУЗа свои требования в отношении приемлимости/неприемлимости услуг компаний по подтверждению иностранных дипломов (также многие ВУЗы сами производят подтверждение диплома, за отдельную плату). Однако есть широко распространённые на рынке конторы - например, ECE - educational credential evaluators www.ece.org

Разница между мастер-ом (MA/MS) и MBA (master of business administration) - в данном случае речь идёт о HR (human resource management):
..."An MBA will give you a very broad business background. You will be required (at most schools) to take courses in all areas of business, such as accounting, marketing, finance, management, statistics, etc. You will be able to take at most, 4 maybe 5 courses in HR. The degree will probably be anywhere from 48 to 60 credit hours, depending upon the school. An MS in HR is much more focused to HR. It is usually shorter, 36 to 48 credits. Most of your courses will be in HR or in a related discipline. You might have to take a statistics course, but you will generally not be required to take a lot of other courses in outside disciplines such as accounting, finance, etc. So, which you go for depends on what you want to be able to do. If you are positive you want HR and you want to be a generalist, the MS degree may be the way to go. If you want to explore HR as well as other areas of management, the MBA may be the way to go."... http://www.shrm.org/students/getstar...CMS_003146.asp


А хороших ВУЗов в Бостоне очень много (oднако по радио обсуждался вопрос, что Бостон занимает первое по кол-вy part-time, not full-time, professors преподающих в учебных заведениях - что не есть хорошо. А обучение самое дорогое по Штатам. С другой стороны, студентам полезно получать real world experience within the course of lectures in order to be competitive after graduation):

/субъективно/ помимо Ivy leage Harvard, MIT

Boston U. (very strong in economics)

Brandeis U.
Wellesley C. (all-women)
Northeastern U.
etc.

Слышал хорошие вещи про Clark University ... BU оставил двоякое впечатление (слишком много студентов - профессора не найти) ... я получал МBА в UMass Boston как резидент (цена обучения существенно ниже) - у нас было много профессоров с Гарвардскими дипломами как это ни странно. Уровень преподавания неровен - всё зависит от учителя, или так себе или очень очень интересный предмет.
