L’impact perçu des programmes MBA sur les perspectives d’évolution de carrière et de développement des compétences : une recherche explicative comparant les étudiants français et ceux issus des pays du Golfe
Based on a sample of students in both a French business school and a university established in Bahrain and recruiting students from various Arab Gulf countries, our paper is analyzing the relationship between the career goals of students and their nationality. The main results show that nationality has little effect on student motivation to continue their education, their perceptions of the results they expect, as well as their perceptions of their career prospects. However, some results show differences in relation to nationality; the most significant being the program’s selection criteria in relation to business objectives and desired skills.
