Decades ago, MBA programs were feared because they were very quantitative. Many programs incorporated courses in operations research, statistical analysis, and various quantitative methods. However, in modern times, some believe the MBA is now a softer degree. Do you believe MBA programs have become less difficult and less quantitative over time? Do you believe a less quantitative MBA is good or bad?
I believe MBAs, and other graduate degrees have become assembly line education. The push for enrollment, the expectations of the students to complete courses, often with little desire to learn, have changed graduate education into a fast food version of education.

In view of fast paced technological developments, it is important to include data analytics , IoT , application of new technologies alongwith other regular management subjects.
Sirs,
Thank you both so very much for your responses.
Have a great day!

I think MBA program targeting manufacturing, service, technology and infrastructure development industries need to have more quantitative inputs.
To meet future requitements of corporate world, it has been observed that other management areas also need to include mathematical , engineering and analytical inputs e.g. Market Research, HR Analytics, Financial Engineering`, Fintech etc.
