I have to give the edge to Ross in general. Having said that, if you want to work in UK/Europe, Cambridge is the clear choice, if you want to be in the USA - Ross. The opportunity cost for Cambridge is obviously lower but it all comes down to where you want to be once you graduate.

Have a few worries :

How do both compare on career services esp. for internationals w/o visa auth. etc.

Global Brand/Alumni network - strength and relevance

If you want to keep your options open, I would suggest Ross. It is not that it is easier to get a job in Europe coming from Ross than from Cambridge. It's just easier to get a job in Europe with a US degree than in the US with an European degree.

If you are interested in energy, including the financial aspects, the Energy and Environment concentration within the Cambridge MBA would be a good fit for you. You can take electives such as Numerical Information and Environment Policy, Emissions and Energy Market strategies, and Climate Leadership. Plus there will be a coach who organises activities related to energy and the environment. In the past, these activities have included a site visit to a low carbon business, talks by industry experts, and attending seminars organised by the Cambridge Energy network.

Most Cambridge MBAs that I have spoken to also cite the fact that the University and the surrounding area have very strong capabilities in cleantech as a key factor that deepens their understanding of the energy sector.
