Hi everyone. I have received two offers, one is International Public Policy from UCL and the other one is Political Economy of Late Development at LSE and I am really not sure which is the better offer.

While I personally prefer the curriculum of the former a bit more (I think it has a broader scope of study and cover more international political topics), I am wondering as to whether the world-beating global reputation of LSE will be more of an asset in competing for positions or internship at IGO or multinational business corporations. But on the other hand, I feel that the MSc at LSE has a more specialised or narrow focus while that of UCL covers a broader dimension of international politics/policies, and do not know if this will probably offset the edge LSE's prestige has over other colleges like UCL.

I want to choose the program that will let me make the most out of the not-exactly-inexpensive academic year, as my family has contributed the bulk of the tuition. I'm wondering if the reputation of the school where you get a Master from is more important or whether the wider focus of the UCL program actually matters.

Any ideas will be deeply appreciated :)
