Course Overview

Understanding the theory and frameworks that underpin contemporary marketing thinking is critical. Created in close consultation with the marketing industry and the Chartered Institute of Marketing (CIM), our MSc Marketing degree develops the strengths, abilities, and understanding that employers are looking for.

Through interactive and applied learning, you will look at the fundamental issues and concepts of marketing practice, examine consumer markets and behaviors that influence global strategies, and understand the role of marketers in product innovation. In your third semester, you will choose an experiential project. With the opportunity to use your skills in a real-world setting, you can choose from completing a consultancy experience project, an internship experience project, or a business research project.

Designed for aspiring marketers

This course is aimed at students from a range of backgrounds who don't necessarily have a background in marketing. Whether you want to work for a major international organization or small-scale start-ups, our MSc Marketing degree will ensure you learn the theory, tools, and techniques needed to develop into an effective marketing professional ready to operate at strategic and tactical levels in the industry.
