UK vs US program for job opportunities in Asia


I'd like to pursue an MBA from a top school from either the US or UK, but I'm not sure whether the country makes a big difference. My goal is to improve my job prospects either in India, where I reside, or elsewhere within the region (Singapore being a very attractive alternative).

Amongst top schools that offer online degrees, such as Warwick, Kelley, Imperial, Tepper, would it make sense to lean towards one country over the other? Does it matter at all?

Thank you in advance.

It does matter, but what matters more is the school’s global reputation and alumni network. For Asia, UK schools like Warwick and Imperial tend to have stronger regional ties and time zone alignment--this helps with networking.

US schools like Kelley and Tepper offer broader global recognition, especially among multinationals. If your focus is Asia-centric roles, UK could offer a slight edge in accessibility and regional connections, but in the end employer brand and alumni engagement matter more than location alone.
