MBA through distance learning from a recognized university is equivalent to regular MBA. The content and syllabus of MBA regular and MBA distance learning is almost same. The major difference in both is the type of education. Regular MBA is taught by balanced mix of lectures, case-studies, live- corporate examples, uses of analytical tools and general discussions with faculty and fellow students. The case studies strengthen theoretical concepts, while it can be applied in real corporate life. You will miss learning by case studies in MBA through distance learning. In addition, you will miss opportunities of discussion with faculty and fellow students. In distance learning MBA, you will miss out campus placement opportunities. Regular MBA provide you opportunities and infrastructure to develop your leadership skills and sharpen your personality.
