which is the best course whether MSc in clinical research or MBA in healthcare administration?Which course has a bright future?

Both courses are good in their own aspect. If you are interested in going into the administrative kind of job then healthcare course would be good. Otherwise the MSc is more suited for you.

I have heard that now the students donot get proper job after msc in clinical research.Many of them are jobless.Is it right? What package the companies offer after course?
