  MBA 과정을 성공적으로 마치고 기업체로 가면 어느 정도의 보수를 받을 수 있을까. 
  2006학년도 2학기부터 한국에서도 경영전문대학원이 출범하고 전일제(Full-Time)  MBA 과정이 생겨나면서 이들 MBA 졸업생에 대한 사회적 대우에 대한 관심이 고조되고 있다. 

  MBA의  원조국이라고 할 수 있는 미국은 MBA 학위를 취득하면 상당한 대우를 받는다. US News & World Report가 최근 조사 발표한 자료에 따르면 출신학교별로 큰 차이가 난다. 1위는 스탠포드. 2005년 스탠포드 MBA의 초임 급여는 연봉기준 평균 10만4917달러에 달했다. 우리 원화로 1억원에 육박하는 수준이다. 보너스와 성과급을 합하면 16만9천27달러에 이른다. 

  하버드 출신 MBA는 급여 연봉10만3044달러 보너스 2만0196달러 성과급 3만474 달러 였다. 3위는 유펜 MBA로 급여 연봉 10만1604달러 보너스 2만1270달러 성과급 3만9595달러에 달했다. 미국 내 100위권 안의 학교들은 성과급을 포함 대부분 연간 10만 달러를 넘어섰다.   
 
  한국과 미국은 경제여건이 달라 단순비교 하기는 어려울 것이다. 그러나 전일제 MBA의 등장으로 한국에서도 MBA에 대한 가치가 종전에 비해서는 크게 오를 것이 확실시된다. 또한 기업업무의 전문화추세를 반영하여 MBA에 대한 수요가 갈수록 높아지고 있다는 사실을 감안할 때 한국에서도 MBA 출신들이 앞으로 상당한 대우를 받을 것으로 보인다 (경영신문 김봉진)
