Hi,

Do you mean University of Aberdeen or Aberdeen business School (Robert Gordon Uni)? If it is Aberdeen Uni then it is definitely the better choice academically, but if Robert Gordon, then not as good.

Northampton is a very new university, not long ago a college of further education. Not exactly renowned for its business department, but there has been a lot of investment across a range of areas.

Neither have an MBA brand to speak of outside the UK, but Aberdeen has a definite advantage nationally. Also you might find jobs better in Scotland at the moment. If Northampton have made you a very cheap offer then it could be the safe bet for you, in case you are unable to find a job afterwards.
