    MSc EEF @ UCD, MSc Int Finance @ CLSB, MSc Inv Analysis @ Aston?
    Hi there!

    I got three unconditional offers for the following programs:

    MSc in Energy and Environmental Finance at UCD Smurfit, Dublin
    MSc in International Finance at Católica Lisbon
    MSc Investment Analysis at Aston, Birmingham.

    I have to decide by tomorrow which masters I accept. The point is that I just can't decide which one to choose.

    MSc EEF at UCD:
    Pros: Unique program, only 1 year
    Cons: Cost of living in Dublin

    MSc Int Finance at CLSB:
    Pros: Exchange semester included, possibility to enhance my Portuguese
    Cons: 2 years

    MSc Inv Analysis at Aston:
    Pros: Most professional program, 1 year
    Cons: Maybe too much into the trading area

    My aim is to gain international exposure (I'm German myself) and to work in an interconnected department which may have to do with the Brazilian culture as well as energy markets.
    What do you think? Which program would fit me the most?

    Thanks in advance!!

    Hi, I've also got an offer for msc investment analysis at Aston Uni. I think I might accept it. I don't believe that it is too much into the trading area. After looking at the modules, it seems as though it covers most aspects of finance especially the valuation of companies which is a double module.
