Both have equal opportunity but there is a slight tilt of demand in favor of candidates who have completed MSc in applied finance/financial eng

It depends on each university. A Master's in Economics at one school will have a slightly different program than a Master of Economics at another. You have to research the university's programs individually. Likewise, two schools may offer very similar programs under different names. An MSc in Economics at School A could be the same thing as an MSc in Financial Economics at School B, but totally different from an MSc in Economics at School C. See what I mean? Good luck! EDIT: I'm fairly sure all economics programs are related to the stock market. It's hard to talk about the economy with referring to the stocks!

I would like to change my career to marketing

I would like to change my career to marketing?
I currently work in finance. I have an MSc degree in finance. But i am not passionate at all about this field. In fact i am miserable. I really feel trapped. I would like to change my career. But the problem is i am 35. So it is not easy to change fields at my age. I was thinking about getting an MSc in marketing. Would it be too late to start in marketing if i am 35. And do you guys think i will have to start from the bottom in the marketing field after i get my master's of science in marketing? I really need a good advice. Thanks.

35 is not too old for this decision. I suggest you contact Marketing people in your company and in other companies, maybe even people at the marketing department of a local university too. Tell them who you are and your situation, and that you'd like to meet with them over lunch (you buy) to discuss a marketing career. Tell them you'd really appreciate their insight and guidance in how to proceed. Not everyone you contact will take you up on this, but one or two will, since people who are experienced in a field often want to help others. Your experience in Finance makes you more valuable than you might think. Nowadays people with multiple skills sets can be more attractive, even if their experience in the new skill is low. Managers often feel that they can benefit from your previous finance experience, which, by the way, they may not have!!!! Go for it!!!
