Hey!

The best place you can go to for info on studying in Britain is any British council library. They have education counsellors and tons of info abt the various schools and the programs they offer.

If you can't get to a Council library, check out the educationuk.com website. It has a search program that can help you find the schools that offer the programs you're looking for. After you find the schools, you can go their websites, find contact info for the department you're interested in and get in-depth info about the program.

From the little that I know about marketing degrees in the U.K, I believe that the MSc degree is a little more theoretical and focused in its approach. And what Nisha said was right, any MBA program worth its salt anywhere in the world will look for work ex. But Msc/ MA programs do not seem to require any work ex. They do, however, pay a great deal of attention to your acads.

Hope the info helps!

Clueless.

hey buddy

i have done quite some research abt study in the UK..

first of all...MBA or MSc... the difference is, while MBA is more of a general management degree, MSC are more specialised...

the Difference between MBA and MSC Management is that... while MBA is the ultimate thing, MSC Management is just a bridge course, especially for those who want to change streams, for eg..from science to business...

i dont really know abt the viability of a MSc marketing degree there.. i was told by my advisor that "in the UK, indians are perceived to be better at analytical skills while the phirangs are better at interpersonal skills"... which is why for us, from job point of view in the UK, a Finance degree will be a better choice than a marketing one... besides, the three biggest companies in the UK are all banks... Barclays, Natwest and Duetche Bank...

for London... the ideal universities to pursue finance(since i have concentrated my research from a finance degree pov) are LSE and the City University...

the other good universities for finance are manchester, warwick and oxford.. though they are not in london...

i hope the info is of help...please keep in touch

hi buddy
sorry for replying so late

let me take the univs in question one by one
warwick- excellent university..excellent placement records-an uemployment rate of less than 2% for postgraduates (as claimed by their prospectus).

strathclyde-ecellent faculty...good industrial interface...best univ in scotland.. added advantage is abt 2 years work permit in scotland (please confirm, though) after ur pg degree.

leeds and bath-no clue

since u have warwick on your agenda, i suggest go for manchester, too... but this univ requires a GMAT score...

also, please could u give me ur academic profile so that i can assist you further.

take care
Samarth

as for the funding...well, it is really expensive with very few scholarships available...though easy education loans available..

Hey..

Any idea on how good are these insitutes for mba / finance? And what are the job prospects like back in India itself???

Hi,

I am from an IT (B.E - E.T.C.E) background and have close to 3.5 years of work experience in some of the top MNCs in India.

I am contemplating a MBA from Cranfield UK. I found this more or less an optimised choice if a correct balance of quality vs cost is to be struck.

It would be great if anyone can throw some light on the kind of job opportunities post Cranfield. Work permit in UK I heard are pretty difficult and would like to hear more on this. It may help me coming to a final decision.
