if you plan to do a PhD in Financial economics, go LSE - they have a more famous faculty

if you plan to go to industry afterwards, they will both get you the same interview, and the rest depends on yourself instead of the name of the school.
since I am 名校控, I will say Cambridge is Cambridge and will definitely vote it over LSE.

Thank you very much, not going to do a phd, I just want to work in China after the graduate study. So you are saying, in China, if I plan to go to industry, they are basically the same ?

for uk they will be really similar,

It really depends on your career goal. I think the Cambridge Mphil in Finance and Economics is academically-oriented, while LSE MSc Finance and Economics is more industry-focused. But I have heard that LSE MSc Finance and Economics has a concentration named MSc Finance and Economics (Research), so I guess this program is also more academic compared with the MSc Finance program. Since you want to work in China's industry, why did you apply for Finance and Economics? Such programs are usually more academic... Maybe MSc Finance is more suitable for your career path.

But since you have already applied, in my opinion, LSE and Cambridge are both well-known to domestic finance-related firms. I don't think reputation will make a big difference. However, since LSE is located in London, which makes it convenient for you to find an internship and to build your network, I'll vote for LSE. Hope my opinion helps .

thank you very much, it really helps!! As my career goal is go back to work in China, not necessarily the investment banking industry, I am also interested in the government organization like people's bank of China or ministry of finance. I am wondering if Cambridge would be more suitable ?
