Hi all,

I am Vinay here, from India. I hold an Engineering degree and currently working as a Pre-Sales architect(4 Yrs Exp).
I wish to do PhD in Business in my career. I'm currently shortlisting the Pre-doctoral/MSc/MPhil programs that I can enroll in before embarking on my PhD(Reason behind this is I have NIL research experience and I need to get myself introduced to various streams available so that I can make an intelligent decision for my PhD studies)

I have shortlisted
Oxford:Said - Masters in Management Research
Cambridge: Judge - MPhil in Management Science
Indian School of Business - Pre-Doctoral Studies

I would want to know, if enrolling to these courses would be a good first step towards my goal.
Also, Pls suggest some other valuable programs that might be of help.

Lastly,
How good is this path - Enroll to an MBA program in a B-school which focuses on Research . Is it viable to think that I can get to know intricacies and first hand info about Research programs during my tenure at MBA studies.

Awaiting some valuable responses

Thanks!
