Hi,

I have received confirmation from both universities but I am confused. I am an industrial engineer and I have around 6 months of work experience so far.Because of the compulsory military service law in Turkey, I wont be able to complete 3 years of work experience before serving to the military (I am not considering to study after the service for now)

I am aiming to continue my career in our family owned sme.

Because of the program contents, I was about to apply for Cardiff MBA. However, I have realized that most of the comments about the program was negative here.

I would be glad if you can help me on this decision, thanks :)

The Bath MSc in management is the obvious choice between the two. Even if you *specifically* wanted to work in India, which Cardiff is perhaps optimal for, it would be better to study in India. Use http://rankings.ft.com/businessschoolrankings/masters-in-management-2011

Thanks for the reply.
I thought their business schools did not have major difference. It seems I was wrong, thanks to this site :)

No, there's a huge difference. Bath is internationally accredited and is one of the leading European business schools. Cardiff's taught masters are very weak, but it's strong for the PhD.

Certainly MSc from accredited school is preferred over MBA Look for other options as well in MSc. As i could not see any reason in spending 18K + living at Cardiff MBA.
