No. IN the first year, you have to study all the subjects – Finance, HR, Accounts, Marketing, Production, Quantative. After two Semesters you may choose the stream in which you want to do MBA.

I chose my undergrad degree and MBA after I started. I didn’t know what exactly I wanted to study. I just knew I wanted a degree. For undergrad I started as a business major, then recreation, then psychology, then back to business. For my masters I started in accounting then switched to MBA then chose an emphasis in project management. Some people know what they want before they start. Others don’t.

Because MBA programs accept students from all undergraduate backgrounds, they have to provide a basic exposure to business courses first. That means in the first your you student accounting, finance, marketing, production, management, and quantitative methods, with some variation. MBA programs don’t have majors like undergraduate programs. The MBA is a general degree training you to manage any level of business. Many MBA programs offer a concentration which means two or three elective courses is your chosen field, but there are still other requirements, such as courses in policy, strategy, leadership, and others, again depending on the school. Oh, and MBA programs usually require applicants to have 2-4 years of work experience after their bachelors degree.
There is a lot of information about MBA programs on the Internet. The Official MBA Guide is a free public service with more than 2,000 MBA programs listed. It allows you to search for programs all over the world, by concentration such as finance, marketing, aviation management, health management, accounting, and a dozen others, and by listing your own criteria and preferences to get a list of universities that satisfy your needs. You learn about accreditation, tuition, number of students, class sizes, program length, lots of other data.

An MBA curriculum also works the same way as Bachelor’s where you will have to take up some subjects which might not be directly relevant to your specialization. There are some specialization subjects in 1st year as well but you need to get an overall picture of different aspects of an organization/business. One cannot totally delineate a major from other subjects. In case you are not interested in taking up other subjects, you can always opt for a PG Diploma in a specific specialization.
