Can I please get some advice from you guys on choosing undergraduate courses between
Bocconi's International Economics, Management and Finance, and
UCL's Economics and Statistics?
What's your experience with both regarding getting into BB's FO roles, particularly in London, and then in Europe/US in general?
Which one's more recognised, respected, employable, prestigious, targeted?
Which will open more doors in the US or Asia (HK or Singapore for example)?
Does Bocconi have something like an Investment Society that is as good as the UCL's?
Things to note: I
can't speak Italian (yet). Getting into Bocconi was relatively easy. Prefer London to Milano. Bocconi will cost considerably less (Bocconi
4.5k euros to max of 10k euros compared with UCL's
13.5k pounds)
In this ranking table about Employer's review, Bocconi is ranked better, is it reliable though?
http://www.topuniversities.com/university-rankings/world-university-rankings/2010/indicator-rankings/employer-reviewBocconi (BIEMF course specifically) offers an exchange opportunity at the following unis: ESADE, Rotterdam, St Gallen, Erasmus, Tilburg, UBC, BU, all the Unis of Cali (including Berkeley, UCLA, etc), Columbia, Dartmouth, NYU (including Stern), UPenn (not Wharton), Purdue, Princeton, HKU, Tsinghua, and many other unis in Asia/Ocenia/Africa and it is
not competitive to get.
Whereas UCL has a few
very competitive exchange places at Toronto, UPenn, Columbia, UCLA, Chicago and Purdue.
Any opinions appreciated. (will give rep if possible
)
