I have a small dilemma, I have to decide between the MBA programs at Bath and Birmingham.
I like the Birmingham program because it's two years long and it is triple accredited. But I am open to Bath because they are have offered me a scholarship.
I would be interested in hearing the pros and cons about these schools based on career advancement and placements.

Have you considered using the FT and Economist rankings to compare the data?

What are your career goals? If you would be considered an international student and want to stay in the country after graduation, two years gives you a lot more time to start looking for employers and getting your post-MBA work plans lined up.
In very general terms Birmingham comes out ahead, in terms of salary. Looks like Bath is ranked higher in terms of international mobility, so that's something to keep in mind.

Birmingham and Bath are both internationally recognised as a university. As for their postgraduate programme in business, they are merely above average. It really depends on your ability and see if your ability fits with the school entry requirement. Birmingham also recruit more senior applicants into their programme.

Good point about the seniority of the cohorts.
