Hi Nikita,
you can opt for better universities then the ones you have opted. With regards to sandwich placement, no UK university assure any placement, they will ask you to find the placements by your self. Therefore i would suggest that you should not decide your university based on such criteria.
I would highly recommend to opt for top ranking universities if you have sufficient funds available.

Mamit

Indeed, at the very least, check out Manchester's range of MSc offerings in information systems - these degrees will carry more weight than the others you listed.

And if you can wait until 2013, Durham is planning on launching an MSc in Innovation, Technology and Operations Management that looks interesting.

Mamit,
I am beyond grateful that you could reply to my query. There is no constraint of finances as such. But I have to admit that my grades in my engineering don't boast excellence. I have a current 53% and may achieve something nearing a 55-57% by the end of my final semester. So that could be a major constraint in my case.
Apart from the above, I had applied to MBS and Southampton. But have faced rejection from both.

I would be really obliged if you could offer your suggestion.

Thanks you for your response Sir. I had applied to an MSc program at MBS but have faced rejection because of my low grades. Could you suggest any other options for me?
I'll be grateful.

Mamit,
I haven't taken IELTS as of yet. Some of my offers do not require me to take IELTS as I have scored 84 marks in English in XII Board(CBSE). However I plan to take once my engineering is over.

Yes with 84% marks, i believe most of the universities will exempt your English requirement but some high ranked universities would still require IELTS.
