Royal Holloway or Birkbeck in Msc International Management?

Hello everyone! I am divided in choosing MSc International Management at Royal Holloway or MSc International Business at Birkbeck. By the rankings that I have consulted RHUL is some positions forward Birbeck. Which institution is better recognised in the labour market?

They are both at about the same level, certainly your personal characteristics would be far more important to an employer than the difference from a degree from either of these institutions.

In fact, they are quite different institutions in terms of style and history, Royal Holloway is a traditional university, though with a specific history. Birkbeck is better known as a non-standard university, specialising in evening classes and part-time study. There is probably a very different community feel between the two, their environments are quite different as well.
