MBA Marketing

Which are the best universities for MBA Marketing in the UK? I have around 2 and a half years of part time work experience, and I will be working full time for a year, once I graduate this September. Most of the universities in the UK need at least 3 years work experience, but could someone please suggest me the universities that will accept this kind of work experience?

Thank you.

There are no good ones. Quality UK schools will look for three years of full-time, post-degree work experience. The others are a disaster.

You won't get into a good, internationally accredited MBA. Either take a good, internationally accredited Master in management http://rankings.ft.com/businessschoolrankings/masters-in-management-2011 or wait until you have more work experience.

For marketing, I would recommend the MSc programmes at Birmingham, Cranfield, ESCP's London campus, Imperial and Lancaster. Also look at the Copenhagen, HEC and ESADE masters.

I don't really want to wait until i get 3 years work experience. As far as I have known, MBA is more prestigious and has a greater scope than MSc. By doing MSc, would I get the same kind of job offers and pay as it is in the case of MBA?

You will be the best offer from an internationally accredited MBA, the next best from an internationally accredited MSc (Just compare the salaries on the FT rankings) and then something closer to regular undergraduate starting salaries with a 'freshers' MBA, which would lack international accreditation.
