Hello, Has anyone attended or have any information on the Social Anthropology MA program at Lund University in Sweden ?

I was intending on going to Lund University's Masters in International Development and Management, but two weeks ago I got a late acceptance from UCL's Environment and Sustainable Development Program. I'm having a lot of trouble deciding because I'm not super sure how consultancies, development organizations, or multilaterals think in terms of hiring. So far two professors in related fields (development econ and urban planning for low-income countries) have recommended UCL flat out. People I knew who worked in UNDP and UNEP both told me to go for the highest brand value due to how competitive the field can be. That being said, I feel a bit risk adverse because while Lund teaches project management techniques, data analysis and SPSS, ArcGIS, and ensures a three month internship as part of the course structure, UCL only briefly touches on mapping applications and has a heavier policy and case study emphasis. It seems though that I'm choosing between more skill development with Lund and better name recognition and networking opportunities with UCL, and it's hard to determine what will matter more. UCL is the same overall price (though carried in one year), and has the slight advantage of pushing me back into the job market earlier, meaning I can start paying down student loans sooner. Looking for insight! -

Hello, I've been accepted to Lund University for the Master of International Development and Management. Currently it is my first choice. My main questions are: a) how is the life in the city? b. which type of housing is better for me to choose? and c) I didnt got the Global Scholarship so I am financing my first year. Is it easier to get financial aid for the second year? or to get a job as a teaching assistant when you are getting your Masters' degree? All the help is welcome
