Dear Friends,

Could u please suggest me MBA from Uk Universities DURHAM vs BIRMINGHAM vs NEWCASTLE vs NOTTINGHAM vs STRATHCLYDE.

Which one to prefer when it comes to Employability and reputation, as I am from India with engineering background and managerial experience of 4 years.

I also want some info & reviews about University of Birmingham 2 years MBA International Business as i am more keen for joining it.

Strathclyde and Durham might be good places to start, given that they are the only schools here that are ranked in the FT -- although they're lower-tier schools.

I'm not sure if you're planning on trying to land a job in the UK after graduation, but if so you probably want to pay attention to the "international mobility" metric in the ranking, which is the success rate that students have in changing location after graduation. Strath ranks better in these terms.

Of course, with an MBA program from a school with higher rates of international mobility -- like Cranfield, Oxford, or Cambridge -- you'd probably have better chances in terms of transitioning

I am looking forward for Durham University MBA 15 months full time in Sept 2015 and been offered the joining letter and have accepted the offer as i was given 5000 pound scholarship from Durham University,
Is anybody applying out for Durham University MBA ?

I will be joining Durham Global MBA in April intake. Nice to meet you here and you may add me (Jims Hui) on LinkedIn & Facebook if you don't mind :) It is good to meet Alumni and share ideas, culture and experience with each other.

Hi jims Hui,nice to hear that , u can join facebook page i made for durham 2015 MBA

Hi Abhishek,

I have applied to Durham too, for September 2015 intake. My congratulations on your admission and scholarship!

Before getting your offer from the university, did you have an interview with them? If you did, what it was like?

How did you apply for scholarship?

I would very much appreciate if you could share your experience on the above.

Look forward to hearing from you.

Kind regards,

Carina

hi carinas, they did interviewed me , i gave them perfect answers why mba ,why mba from durham , future goals ,next five years plan , after mba plans, QUESTIONS like these were asked in interview,

I was awarded 5000 GBP scholarship after along with my offer letter which u have to reply them with yes that u accept their scholarship.

Scholarships are automatically provided from Durham University based on your profile.

But i even though durham is awesome university with great rank and reputation in uk as well as internationally, I always wanted to go to Durham Univeristy and i did paid its security deposit ,

But now i have withdrawn my offer letter , as i m an international student, and stayback in uk is only 3-4 months which i felt was very less , I had offer from most of the non GMAT universities in top from uk except cambridge or oxford etc,

But because of stayback option of less months i dropped from going to UK.

Hence i am now going to Australia, which has 2 years stayback option(post study work permit) after course but with a condition that course should be 2 years as well. so total i have 4 years stayback option ie. 2 years study & 2 years post study work permit,lastly Australia & Germany are as per education counsellors more stable economy and better job prospects

So if u might be looking for Australia then only apply mba or any other course which is atleast 2 years duration.
