Im an Electrical Engineer with 7 yrs exp in the Electric Utility/Renewable Energy sector. I have EU passport (Italian cit.). Im looking to continue working in the energy industry and change country. (Target companies EDF/Shell/BP/E.ON). I want to stay in UK after my MBA or in Germany/Netherlands (Brexit). I dont speak German/Dutch.
Based on my profile and goals, which b-school to choose? I've highlited the main points for four schools Ive applied/been admitted:
1) Cranfield (MBA Energy) - 44.000 (50% scholarship)
Pros: Cheapest/Specific Energy Business modules/Decent Ranking/Strong network in UK and links with industy/Positive alumni reviews and satisfaction
Cons: Location middle of nowhere/Brexit issue/Cranfield great slip in ranking in the last years 30-40th to 70th/Small class size.
2) ESMT Berlin - 43.500 (20% scholarship)
Pros: Berlin!! (the best location, inexpensive and so cool)/German strong economy and prosperity/Jobs conditions in German and excelent quality of life
Cons: Language barrier-only 20% offers available for positions in English/graduated students dissatisfaction with Career Service and poor Network however all end up working in Germany/Mannheim-Whu better reputation in Germany/Young b-school and the Program is new in 2020
3) Rotterdam School of Management, Erasmus University - 52.000
Pros: Great Curriculum (sustainability focus) and b-school reputation & network/better ranking/Job postions in English/Excelent quality of life in the Netherlands
Cons: Expensive/drop in rank from 30-40th to 55th/Uncertainty about b-school reputation outside The Netherlands (mainland Euope)
4) Imperial College - 59.000
Pros: London (best student city and opportunities)/Reputation as one of the best university and prestigious network/Top 40 ranking positions/Exciting program curriculum w/real world experience, connection with others faculties and innovation focus
Cons: The most expensive but I dont know if it carries such a high brand value over Cranfield in UK market in terms of job offers/Brexit issue

I see that there is a big focus on rankings in your perception about these programs. Stay away from rankings - look at the alum and jobs reports.
FT rankings have a ton of Asian schools that have suddenly risen in the ranking, and that would explain the drop in European school rankings-but look at the jobs that participants get after graduating. Jobs sum up all the recruiters perceptions, schools teaching, network and everything else.

Hi Congratulation on your admits. I suggest you don't go with rankings, consider the post-MBA employability and scholarships. Imperial and Cranfield would be better choices.
