the masters course in UK is one year, while that in Italy I suppose is 2 years. thats da main difference. Also UK is very much advanced in the marine industry. So i think it is more worthy to move UK. Also the language will be an issue.We asians at least know to read and write english, but Italians never invaded us

Curry does not exist in India Hoyt!

There is something named Garam Masala (every housewife has a own recipe), which Lord Curry brought to GB.


And to topic GB is the way to go, sure!

Ok, so it's 3-0 for England at the moment.

But then, you said that you are interested in luxury. That usually means fancy, arty, costly and overpowered floating villas aimed at attracting bikini-clad supermodel chicks and triggering wows in Montecarlo-like marinas.
That's where Italy, being the land of art, fashion and design, is still far ahead of the rest of the world.

Though it sounds pretty much like an offside goal, it still yields:
England - Italy: 3-1

as far as i know.. unless u did ur undergraduate in uk or with their similar style,,
they will ask u to take one year foundation type course or something like that.so it will be 2 years for uk too for overseas std... u can contact with the university directly so u will not be miss guided...
and yes first visit these two country's university website.. read the guides and course structure , that will help u to ask a better question

No problem with that, but I eat with chuppati, because forks and knives would corrode from my Garam Masala.
