How is University of Western Australia (UWA) MBA-Global?


Hi,
UWA has an executive MBA program (https://globalprograms.uwa.edu.au/mba/index.php) in collaboration with IIM Kozhikode. It's a 2-year program and after graduation, the degree granted is an MBA-Global.

I have the following questions about it and would be grateful if someone could answer:

1. Is there a possibility that having "MBA-Global" on the degree be considered an issue with the industry, especially for someone with no prior management experience (usually prior experience can trump academic credentials)? Will this degree be considered equivalent to an MBA?

2. For someone who can't enroll in an on-campus program, is this course and university any good?

Thank you!

Thanks for responding @Mbanerd. Can you tell me why you call those programs better? Also, what's your opinion of the UWA-IIMK program?
