Aston Business School vs. University of Bath School of Management

Hi there,
I got an offer for the MSc in International Business at the Aston Business School and for the MSc in Management at the University of Bath School of Management. Now I do not really know which programme to choose as I consider them both as very good and highly renowned programmes. I therefore hope that you can give me some advice.
Thanks a lot!

I would choose Bath any day - nice area and both are similar in terms of prestige and both have similar units in their programme. Up to you really but Id choose greeny Bath over gloomy Aston.

What are you talking about, if you search their rankings in the Guardian 2010 table, Aston Business School is much much better established, its up to you, but I'd do you're research first. I'd personally pick Aston Business School over Bath anyday. And I get so annoyed when people say Aston is 'gloomy' its not, people are really friendly, and everything is near. Eh, everyone has their own opinions I suppose... :rolleyes:

As its been said they have very different "feels" I'd take Bath everytime but thats just my opinion.

University of Bath sounds more traditional, more reputed and more popularly known. Rankings are fine but the best is to look through the course content and check which matches with your future plans. In this case, there definitely will be a difference in the content since one is MiM and another one, an MIB.

Bath certainly seems to be advantageous when it comes to delivering a better University life. Both have equally fair career services
