Energy Trading MBA

Energy Trading MBA program is designed for students who wish to obtain a working knowledge of basic structures of energy derivatives currently used in trading, marketing and risk management. In addition, the program offers you a good understanding and knowledge of trading on the energy market, enabling you to become an energy trader / product consumed.

The reason we have not seen sales and trade are historically MBA is that the MBA is not a particularly useful currency in this business, and at least in the past, one could expect a lucrative business career long-term sales and trade.

There was no desire to learn new skills that are not directly translatable in this race. As a seller, its value is in your hedging relationships. If you have some good bills, will not endanger the continuity of these relations to get an MBA, especially when the average of a post MBA project is probably in line with what we already do. Work up, hard, wait a few guys up to get laid off or retired, and inherit from one to six high income figures. If you are a trader, it is a similar scenario. You are busting his hump until someone above you die, how you can inherit his / her book. If you are then in the right seat and an intelligent operator (which I assume you are being hired in the first place), you can make more money trading across the stream that is what will be done leaving HBS associate banker I. Most sellers (and some merchants) that extend to their part-time MBA (NYU / Stern, Columbia, Haas / Berkeley, Chicago / stand all good programs, depending on where you want to live). Now, all that said, in a post-2008 world, these careers and are not nearly as lucrative, stable and long-term as they were. Therefore, it is necessary for most people to be a little more business on their careers and be ready to do something completely out of sales and trade in the medium or long term, if they feel that it will be more rewarding. Therefore, you see many more young people than seats were excellent in banks ab ostensibly from school, go on the buy side, or leave altogether and finance joining the technology industry. So I guess you're one of them and put on a return to race through the business school, take heart. Your resume is as strong as any banker or consultant, provided you yourself and your understanding of your long-term goals present and do.


I did not attend one of the three schools you mentioned, but I went to another school consistently ranked in the top 5. There was that other students come from a sales background or trade, but also to suppliers, computer engineers, researchers, biotechnology, clean technology suppliers, a doctor who had founded a medical technology company, a guy who owned a holding distribution of several million dollars, and a host other non-bankers. In any case, you have an advantage over them, because schools want diversity of history, culture, and opinion. No one could learn something new from each other if they all worked in the same team of capital markets at Morgan or Goldman. Instead of worrying about whether you have the background "right", the thinking skills they have learned, what their long-term goals are, and what skills / contacts / opportunities they need to acquire to get there are. If an MBA is part of this, communicate the story in their trials, and that he will do well.
