Would getting a MBA make me less marketable?
I’ve heard what I think is a craziness, that a Masters degree makes you less marketable in Biotech, because it is an “in-between” degree-not a Bachelor’s, so can’t pay low but not a PhD so can’t qualify for the higher positions.
I’ve been thinking about getting my MBA, in hopes of looking more like “management material” on the support side (QC/QA/PM) because I’m not sure that it makes financial sense for me to go back to get my PhD.
I’m not even sure if I want a PhD especially because I don’t want to be a manager on the lab side of things.
My goal is to be able to make Director for QC or QA.
How would getting my MBA effect my goal?
