Last Updated on August 10, 2023 by Vishnu Nambiar

Have you completed your law education (LLB)? Are you looking forward to pursuing an MBA program? If yes, this article will be of help to you. In this article, I’ve discussed the prospects and scope of pursuing an MBA after completing Law.

Besides scope, opportunities, and career prospects, I’ve also provided a big list of MBA specializations available in India. Make sure that you check out the list too (provided at the end).

Is it possible?

Is it possible to pursue MBA after completing LLB? Yes, definitely.   In order to be considered eligible to pursue MBA, you must have completed a Bachelor’s Degree program from a recognized Institute/University. Law courses (LLB or Integrated law courses) are more than enough to satisfy the minimum eligibility criteria.

Should you go for MBA after Law?

This is a tricky question. The answer to this question depends upon the type of career that you want to build.   If you are interested in entrepreneurship/working at an MNC/high profile Law firm, getting an MBA Degree will be of help to you.

MNCs and Law firms are looking for dynamic candidates

Gone are the days when just one Degree used to suffice! These days, MNCs and Law firms prefer Lawyers who have sound managerial skills. This is where an MBA Degree gives you the edge.

A combination of management skills and law is a unique asset for the corporate world and law firms. You’ll get better pay if you apply for a job at such firms after completing an MBA program.

With an MBA Degree by your side, you may even move away from traditional lawyer job roles! It is possible to move on to roles such as – business development, finance planning, operations management, etc.

In short, with an MBA Degree, your prospects will improve drastically. It will open new doors in front of you, doors that wouldn’t have opened with a Law Degree alone!
