I'm a graduate in engineering (2:2) with 4 years work experience in manufacturing. For a number of reasons I don't wish to apply to study an MBA and I'm in the process of applying for an MSc, with offers from Loughborough (London campus) and Brunel.
I need to stay in London so my options are limited to there alone.
My questions is: Which University would enhance my career prospects the most, and allow me the most freedom to move sectors, should I choose to do so? One answer might be: Study an MBA, but I am unwilling to commit financially to everything that entails.
I'm currently leaning towards Loughborough as it stands, but I'm open to arguments for other Universities.
Management MSc - Loughborough, Brunel, QMUL or elsewhere?

Did you consider looking at the rankings published by the FT on Monday? If Brunel is an option, I would consider Henley too, and better schools.

In all honesty I hadn't seen the latest rankings, I will have a scout and see if it affects my thinking.
Henley would definitely be a better school but it hasn't been somewhere I have considered. I will investigate that, certainly.
I was considering applying to both Cass and Imperial, but I'm unsure how they would view me considering their MSc is aimed at very recent graduates,

Well, there is a wide range of degrees at each school. You will be a stronger candidate for a specialised, functional MSc than a general management MiM. My point is just that should should aim for great schools.
