Hi,
Could anybody please tell me how is MBA @ University of Victoria in terms of

Degree: B.E (comp sci.) with 74%
Work Ex: 2 Years ( as of July 2010)
GMAT: 550
Would anyone recommend me to consider this option?
Thanks a ton ! Please chip in with your valuable replies !

I live in Victoria and I work for a company that works closely with the school. UVic is a very regional school - it's not world-renowned or even nationally known as a leader.
Could anybody please tell me how is MBA @ University of Victoria in terms of
a) Quality of the degree and learning experience
UVic is a very small cohort. It is typically locals who attend the school. In general, UVic is very co-op focused, and the MBA/MPA programs are no exception.
b) Reputation of the university
Like I said, UVic is a very small school compared to its counterparts at UBC and SFU. Even UVI and Kwantlen are huger than UVic. Locally, the school has a fine reputation, but it's direct competitor Royal Roads is growing in reputation. It has more options and a wider alumni base.
c) Job Placements after graduation and Salary
Victoria is a terrible market for MBA graduates. The only industries in Victoria are tourism, hi-tech, and government. All three provide meager salary expectations (especially the high tech industry) and there is very little room to grow. That being said, a co-op is a huge part of their program.
If you're interested in entrepreneurship and want to come to Victoria, I would strongly make a case for Royal Roads. They are very forward thinking and have an entire program in Entrepreneurship. They have a castle on campus.
