I am an Indian with a work experience of 4 years in IT.
I am currently working in TCS as a developer.
I completed B.Tech(Electronics and Telecommunications) with 78%
I wish to go in for a MSc in Information Systems and have shortlisted the following universities.
Lancaster (ITMOC)
LSE (ADMIS)
Warwick (ISM)
Strathclyde (BITS)
Manchester (Information systems ,organisations and management)
Royal Holloway University of London (Business Information System)
Also please guide me through the job prospects of these courses as I will be funding my course through a bank loan...so a job would be of primary importance in selecting te uni.

if you are lokking for the city where you can work part time than also remeber that big cities gona be expensive as compared.

lse is more famous for its research as it has many noble prize winners.

royal holloway is good for arts,drama,music.choice is yours.

LSE has solid teaching and alumni networks (and a great reputation) but don't expect the school to actively look for a job for you.

Nor will an LSE Master's degree open doors all by itself. I should know... I have one.
