Study in the UK. Bradford and Henley are stronger than Bath. I think Henley may be more diverse. Bradford looks very good value.

Thank you Duncan！very valuable information, Do you mean only choose MBA in the UK,not France or Scandinavia?

If so,It seems like Bath MBA ranked so high by The Economist 2012.how do you think this?

Few more things,I can't speak French,How do you consider the Grenoble MBA in France.it is a two years programme,
12 months on campus, followed by 12 months project phase,I have asked them if all students can secure the internship,they told me that the internship in year 2 is optional - the project can be purely theoretical if desired but their careers office has numerous offers of internships to offer students.

Is it worth to study MBA at Scandinavia like Aarhus?

Thank you very much!

My take on this is to study where you want to work. Keep in mind that the UK has recently become more strict with giving out post-study work visas, so you'll essentially have to have a job offer by the time you graduate in order to stay and work.

In terms of the Scandinavian programs, I'd only consider Aarhus, as it's AACSB-accredited. Denmark has a pretty open visa system as well, so this could be an option for you.

t seems like Bath MBA ranked so high by The Economist 2012.

The Economist's methodologies are quite opaque, so I never really put much stock in this ranking. Better to use the FT Global Rankings as a benchmark - Bath and Henley aren't ranked this year, and Bradford squeezed in at spot 95.

how do you think the Grenoble MBA in France?

If you don't speak French, it will be fairly difficult to find a career in France after graduation. Are you planning on learning the language?
