Have you spoken with Indian alumni from these schools, specifically those who found a job in the UK post-MBA program? I presume that's your intent too, unless you wish to return home after the MBA.

I don't know about the MBA programs at both the universities, but I live in the UK, so can speak from that perspective. I feel BAth may be better as the city is an hour away from London, so you will have access to companies in London. You will have access to other citieas well- Birmingham, Bristol, Cardiff, Milton Keynes, Cambridge, Liverpool which have corporate activity. Edinburgh is a business hub too, with several banks head quartered there. If your goal to work in financial services, it may help to study here. In my personal opinion though, I like the vivaciousness of London and Bath is a beautiful city as well - its a big tourist hub and ofcourse there is the University of Bath (Havent been to the uni, so won't comment on it). However, do talk to current students to find out more on the job opportunities post MBA. Specifically talk to Indian students to know how their experience has been.

Hello  Rinkipanwar ,

Hope this finds you well.

Generally speaking, Edinburgh has greater brand value between the two; however, you will get the best advice pertaining to the ground reality from students who have graduated from these schools; hence, the ideal approach would be to seek information interviews on LinkedIn.

Another decision making factor would be how well the electives offered by these schools align with your career goals. Hence, compare the offerings well (including any experiential learning opportunities)

Hope this helps.

All the best!
