Course content
Our course allows you to gain a thorough understanding of marketing theories and how to apply them to real world business challenges. You will specialise in marketing within an international context. This includes rapidly developing issues surrounding global communications and brand management.
Organisations are becoming increasingly aware of the importance of understanding what their customers want and the necessity to develop products and services that meet their needs and aspirations. Organisations which place the customers at the forefront of all decision making and take a marketing-led approach are able to create competitive advantage and build brand loyalty.
