Query On HR Course From London School Of Economics (LSE)

nimisha_10
Dear All
I have an admit from LSE for Msc. International Employment Relations and Human Resource Management
I had a few queries regarding the same.
Are jobs available in India post this degree? Is it considered at par with colleges like TISS/XLRI by companies? I already have 2 yrs of work experience with a FMCG in the Marketing function.

If LSE stands for London School of Economics then it's as good as elite institutions in Inda.

I can't see why not? However if you want a job in India, I wonder why you want to study (in the UK) spending so much money!! Why not join IIMs?

Since I specifically wnat to do HR, I am looking at schools in india like TISS and XLRI, so should I give them a higher preference over LSE (because there is definitely a substantial cost difference)! Pls suugest. Thanks!

If you have no intention of working abroad, I would suggest that you give preference to Indian institutions and save money. However, if you want some international exposure and keep your options open, then opt for LSE. May I know what's the difference in the cost between the two options including living costs. In the Uk, they usually allow students to work part-time while studying. Also, if you want, you will get a visa to work for 2 years after graduation.

In India , The toatal Cost would be around 10 lakhs for the entire course, while in UK the cost would be 20 lakhs (including living costs). My concern is that the UK market is not very open now to foreigners after the recession. Also another query I have is that , If one does a degree from LSE as compared to Indian instiz, is there a probability of getting better work assignments and profiles?
Thanks for taking out time to address my concerns in considerable detail.

I do not know the Indian situation. But degrees from LSE are recognised the world over by MNCs. Sorry for the delay. My laptop had a virus and I was busy with our daughter getting her wedding registered and the party.

Have a nice day.

Dear Sir
I had another query, What kind of jobs (profile)/company (profile) can one expect after completion of this course from LSE.
Also are the designations/responsibilities given of executive level or managerial level .

Sorry Nimisha, I do not know. You write to LSE or search their web or ask students who may have completed their course. I think it also depends upon what basic degree they got, from where, and what prior experience they have.
Have a n ice day.
