Insofe Collaborates With Walsh College USA to bring the Most Affordable International Tech MBA

INSOFE’s collaboration with Walsh College, USA made it possible to design an international Tech MBA with a concentration in Data Science for students from diverse education backgrounds. This MBA does not require any Engineering and Mathematics prowess to succeed and ensures that students build a strong career in the USA upon successful graduation.

According to QS rankings, an average MBA school such as Tuck School of Business would cost around $70,000 – 80,000 for a 2-year program. The MBA at Walsh College on the other hand will only cost $34,600 for the entire duration of study and also get students a Case Western Reserve University certification in Business Analytics.

Cost of pursuing an MBA in the USA

INSOFE students attending Walsh College will pay the same tuition fee as domestic USA students whereas all other USA universities and colleges require international students to pay a higher fee than their domestic counterparts.

The following chart demonstrates an estimate of expenses incurred by a student for pursuing an MBA in the USA based on whether they go to a regular MBA program at a mid-level B school or Walsh College.

INSOFE students will spend their first year of education in India completing their Data Science training at one of INSOFE branches in Hyderabad or Bengaluru. These classes have been designed such that students may continue working while attending classes on weekends or in the evening on weekdays.

This option to work while studying and completing one term of the education in India prior to travel to the USA would drastically reduce the cost-of-living expenses incurred during the duration of study at Walsh College.
