Hi Ramesh,
The answer to your question actually depends on your requirement like what are your career prospects, what profile or exp you carry, which domain/field you want to opt for, etc.
Further as far as MBA in Logistics & SCM is concerned. Performance of supply chain is directly proportional to the productivity of a company. With the retail boom in the country, a career in SCM is both challenging and rewarding option. You could get the following job profiles after completing the required qualifications: Commodity Buyer, Supply Planner, Supplier Manager, Purchasing Executives, Implementation Manager, Procurement Officer.
Hope it helps.
