> You clearly have no idea what is being taught in Top 20 MBA programs. Many MBA programs are graduating people that get both heavy technical training in their program (stats, data engineering, coding, etc) as well as learning how to properly manage individuals with technical skills.

Blatantly false - and I say that as someone with experience with multiple HBS classes. This might be the case for a small minority at those schools, but in no way is it the prevailing wind.

Yeah this sounds like a combined MBA/MS CS.

You can easily go through an entire MBA program and concentrate in something like Marketing where the most technical class you'll take is Stat 102.
