When to get an MBA, an MEng?

Hi Chief Delphi, I'm looking for some advice from some of the more experienced engineers here who might be able to offer me some perspective. I'm currently a junior at MIT majoring in materials science and engineering, and as I've been trying to figure out my plans for my last year of college and my career path, I've determined that I'd like to get an MBA and probably an MEng in my field. I've heard from some people that you'll get a lot more out of it if you have at least a few years work experience before getting an MBA. Should I consider applying to any programs now, for right after I graduate college, or is it better to wait a few years after I have some work experience? Also, does the same thing apply to master's degree programs, or would it be beneficial to do that right after graduating, or does it not make as much of a difference there? Thanks for your help.
