International Recognition: University College London (UCL) or London School of Economics (LSE)H

[collegegrad1]

Hi all,

I was accepted for one year taught master degrees at UCL and LSE. I'm an American and hope to work abroad (in Asia) after graduating. Which of the schools is more international renown? In the States, much more people have heard of LSE than UCL….what do you think?

hey,

i am from europe so i cannot tell u what asian companies think but if we talk about good business schools in london we usually name the LSE. Even I do not know UCL and I usually no most of the popular universities.

well, it is actually UCL which is like on the list of world's top 5 universities in most rankings, I think ))

I mean generally, it is considered that UCL is ranked higher than LSE in education generally -- UCL is a broad discipline school though, and LSE, however, is probably better for a business or economics degree specifically in terms of its international fame

both UCL and LSE are actually parts of the University of London
