Amplified,

It is interesting you wanna change career field from Biomedical science to something else! If you compare to other fields, health sector is never going to slack- I mean even in any sort of ecenomic downturn, people need health care. Since people are living longer, health sector as always has a bright future.

Having said all that- and given my experience in public health, stat seems reasonably better compared to general MBA. However if you are really smart and can prove that during your MBA, chosing MBA may be the best option interms of securing financially better future. As we all know, if you are smart, everybody want you, money will never be a problem in this country- if you check successful Indians or Chinese. And most importantly money is with the business.

If you decide to do biostat, with MS, I am pretty sure you will get a job. However onc eyou are in the program you may feel more pressure to do PhD to stand out in the crowd. Also, with MS biostat, the salary is decent but not that great- check out the web.

If I were you, I would consider furthering in biomedical science or heading to biomedical engineering.

Just my two-cents, Sorry for writing a whole para,

Whatever you decide, Good luck bud,

Dharan
