This course is a good choice for the candidates irrespective of their stream in Graduation.The long term life for HR candidates is fruitful.

MBA in IT and MBA in HR are completely different fields, you can choose any one as per choice and interest.

Choosing an MBA in HR or IT depends on your interests, career goals and personal choice. But, if you ask my opinion, I Would say you should go for an online MBA in HR from CCE UPES University that provides you with interdisciplinary education.

Doing an MBA in IT will restrict the companies you can apply for. But if you do an MBA in HR, you will be free to choose whichever company you want to work within any field – IT, Consultancy, Business Management, Law, etc. You will also be great at dealing with people after doing an MBA in HR.
