Hey Guys,
I am a female candidate from India having 2 years work experience in Tata Consultancy Services as a system engineer. Recently I got offers from UCD Smurfit MSc Management(Not international one) and EDHEC MIM BM. After completion, my plan is to come back and work in India. Please suggest me which one should I choose.
Hello
sreejadutta1709Congrats on admission to both programs !
When I looked at various rankings, it is obvious that Smurfit non international program is not even ranked vs. international one that is in top 10 usually.
From that perspective EDHEC MIM seems like better option to me.
For instance in FT rankings below, you can see there is no Smurfit non international, EDHEC MIM is on 17. place and Smurfit international program is on 7. place :
https://rankings.ft.com/businessschoolra ... ement-2018Pay attention that graduates from EDHEC MIM have slightly higher salary even compared to their Smurfit international counterparts, $68,866 vs. $68,400.
Furthermore, Smurfit international was just one year before ranked on 15. place while EDHEC MIM was 16. meaning they are still relatively close and since we are speaking here about Smurfit non international program that is not even ranked in top 100 by FT, I would say that makes choice pretty much clear.
Moreover, when we compare business schools with each other overall, EDHEC (14) is above Smurfit (24), and Economist places EDHEC in top 20 European business schools :

Good Luck with your choice !
