Glasgow MBA or Sheffield MBA ??
Hi Samarthin,Wed Aug 12, 2009 12:28 PM Both schools are AMBA accredited and ranked not that far from another in the Economist - Glasgow at 78 and Sheffield at 98 - both at the lower end of the ranking. when trying to deiced which one would be better for you, you should first compare the data carefully, to see which one would suit you more. you can start here: mba.eiu.com/index.asp?layout=school_snapshot&unive… mba.eiu.com/index.asp?layout=school_snapshot&unive… look at the individual rankings carefully - for example - although in the over ranking Glasgow is higher, the career service in Sheffield is ranked way higher. you should then think about the city itself - which city you think would best suit you ? this is very important, as you would be spending a long time there, and would also probably have your first post MBA job in the area. trying to contact the alumni is always a good idea. and also trying to asses your chances of getting admitted. good luck! |

Glasgow MBA or Sheffield MBA ??
Hi,Fri Jan 15, 2010 09:30 AM Both MBA colleges are good. Glasgow is more research kind and Sheffield is more practical kind. I have selected Sheffield MBA and i think i made the right decision. The career service here is amazing. And the course is interesting and gets you going. Moreover the place is good. You can find more number of local people joining here. 1. Job opportunities - This actually depends on you. The career service here in Sheffield helps you to find jobs. 2. International reputation i think Glasgow is little more reputed but Sheffield is a better place. It is one of the safest place in UK. It is also cheaper than Glasgow MBA. 3. Career wise i think Sheffield. Because it has more industry tie ups. I am not much sure about Glasgow but, Sheffield MBA is good. Any doubts regarding Sheffield MBA feel free to mail me at samarthin@gmail.com If you are open to other Uni's like Nottingham, Kent, Start and Aston it is better. |
