Does an MBA come under STEM courses, and how does that affect job opportunities compared to STEM courses in UK?

No, an MBA in the UK is not typically considered a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) course. However, some UK universities now offer MBA programs with STEM-focused modules, such as data analytics or technology management.

A STEM-integrated MBA can expand your job prospects by combining business skills with technical expertise, making you attractive for roles in areas like data analysis, technology management, and operations. However, job opportunities and eligibility for STEM-related benefits depend on the specific program and its curriculum.
