Which one would pay off better in the long run, doing an MBA concentrating in SCM from top ranked Supply chain schools/Broad/Carey or pursuing MSCM from Ross?
Background: I am from India. I am working in supply chain function for the last 4 years now and I want to make a transition into more of strategic roles in Supply Chain management (Consulting, Tech Industries, Retail, etc).
Recently, I just got admitted to the Ross MSCM Program starting in July next year. Since the offer just came, I have already started applying for MBA. I have offer from Tippie MBA so far and results from other schools are yet to come.
I saw that most of starting jobs are same post both programs- Graduates from MSCM Ross and MBA Graduates specializing in Supply Chain Management from Top ranked Supply chain schools.
Basically, I am confused between MSCM from better ranked college or MBA from top ranked Supply chain schools. Since, I have supply chain background, I think it is gonna difficult to make a transition into any other function, therefore assuming that post MBA I will seek opportunities in SCM function only.
Any help would be really appreciated. Thank you so much in advance.
If you guys need more information, I will be happy to share.

The MBA would provide a more well rounded set of skills for future management opportunities, especially since you already have industry experience it seems an MBA could best help fill a skill gap

Thank you so much for writing in.
The following observations brought confusion:-
1) Students graduating from Ross MSCM are getting same job profiles (Job Titles) / in same companies as graduates from Top ranked Supply chain school MBA (those who sought roles in SCM / Operations) . Thus, through Ross MSCM I can make this transition in mere 10 months.
2) But Ross MSCM graduates are also getting jobs in well known multinational companies visiting Campus for Ross MBA and other programs (Such as most sought after companies in Tech, Retail, Manufacturing, consulting , I could not find large number of graduates from top ranked SCM school getting into these companies).
3) Plus Ross MSCM is a STEM designated program and Ross may give me a lifelong brand, according to me, please correct me if I am wrong?.
But as you mentioned, I am not sure about the payoff in the long run.
So, even Considering the above points, pursuing an MBA from tier -II college makes more sense? Am I missing something?
Thank you again for help.
