UCL Bartlett Architecture MSci vs Leeds MEng Architecture

Wonder if you guys can help please. I am trying to decide between UCL Bartlett MSci Architecture and the Leeds MEng Architecture. Both have AAB offers. My goal is to qualify as both an architect and an engineer. The Leeds course gives me that combination directly, but I prefer London as a place to study. I also feel that UCL might offer stronger career opportunities, although I might be mistaken. The issue is that if I choose the UCL MSci, I would need further studies to qualify as an engineer (more time/cost). I'm aware UCL also offers an Architecture and Engineering course, but that's AAA (and I have no evidence they let in non-contextual AAB).

I am really unsure what to do. Should I choose:

* the university/city I prefer, but spend more time/money for further education or

* the course that lines up more neatly with my goals, but risk lower job prospects & not enjoying the city

Thank you!
