ERP is something you can learn on your own or if you're employed get your company to pay for the training. You can also enrol at a local community college (they call it TAFE here) as a vocational education. And SAP (one of many other companies) is the company which implements/integrates ERP concepts into their software tools. My point is that top tier universities will never teach you a specific technology or area, as they tend to tunnel vision your scope. Instead, they teach you more foundational (some theoretical than others) aspects of the program you'd be enrolled in. Take a look at top 5 computer science/engineering graduate programs (with their respective subjets/syllabus) in the US- Berkeley, Stanford, MIT, etc. as an example. You won't find any ERP/SAP related degrees. In contrast, many vocational colleges tend to offer these kinds of courses. And employers know this. They simply won't hire you as a SAP specialist (in Financials, etc) just b/c you've done a course on it- they look for your overall background and industry knowledge. If they see you as someone who possess talent/potential they know they can train you easily in ANY technology. Your circumstances may be different to make sense of what I said above. But, generally speaking IMHO you'd be better off taking a general MSc/Masters degree from a reputed university than a specialized tech-oriented degree from a lower tier one. Your chances of employment are greater in the previous scenario than a latter one. Good luck!
