Hello everyone,
I am new user but I have found this forum quite useful for all applicants. I am facing a dilemma regarding my business school endeavors. I have two offers at hand: a professional MPhil at Cambridge Judge Business School without funding and a PhD at one of the better known French Schools (ESSEC/EMLYON/EDHEC). I know the career choices would be different in both cases, however I am trying to gauge which school offers a better placement prospects for employment of international students in the countries they are based. Is the Cambridge brand really stronger than the French schools in Europe? Even though I won’t have to take a loan to attend Cambridge it would still be a very expensive investment (cost a total of GBP 36000). Further, is it possible to join industrial research/consulting after a PhD in Business in Europe (I know it is difficult in the USA)?
Any opinion, experience or suggestion would be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
