RSM is the best for this specialization.

Thanks for the school suggestion.

My research tells me that it would be difficult to land a job in clean energy sector. So I have planned to convert internships into job opportunities. I have also planned to network mostly with people associated with clean energy industries.i have also been reading books and following websites to enhance my industry knowledge.

If even after my efforts I am unable to land a job i plan on breaking into the industry as an 'analyst' as I have heard that there is huge demand of 'business analyst' type of jobs in almost all companies.

what do you think? Am I being realsitic?


nitesh1357, the plan feels still extremely internal - meaning, you don't seem to have connected with current students/recent alums to get a sense of the on-ground realities. Do assess as to how do internships work and also, whether they get converted.

BA is a super generic nomenclature - you would also need a lot more clarity on what that actually means.

So, task cut out and more importantly, think of how you will position yourself in your applications too.

Are you talking about the 1 year international MBA at RSM? The program does have a specialization in Renewable energy and does fit the bill. It also has great diversity.

The only problem is the lack of internship opportunities due to the smaller length of the program.

I am considering about applying to RSM during R1.

I had a really long talk with a current friend of mine who is doing 'Energy Management' from UT,Dallas. He said that the better way to break into clean energy is by joining Stanford/UCB/UCLA(basically top colleges in California). Since I don't feel that my GMAT is 'good enough' i am not applying in any of these.

There seems to be a 50% chance of the internship being converted into full-time job.I guess i am taking a bit of risk here.

By BA I meant like 'Energy Analyst' kind of.

You are right MG4MBACrystalBall, I do need to clearly articulte my post-mba goal.It does seem a bit difficult to sell my post-mba goal to an adcom.Can someone guide me?
