Course content

From websites and emails to blogs and social media, digital marketing has transformed the world of advertising and communications. The MSc Digital Marketing programme at Lincoln is designed for graduates wanting to practice in this increasingly important field of marketing and gain a strategic understanding of its place within the wider marketing function.

The course aims to empower students to be critical thinkers in the global world of digital marketing in order to lead and develop industry practices and processes in responsible and strategically mindful ways.

Following a practice-driven-theory approach, the MSc Digital Marketing programme emphasises the practical application of theory and the development of key digital marketing, leadership, management, and entrepreneurial skills.

This programme is available for both a September and February start.

The course is offered with two separate pathways. Students can either complete one year of study or undertake a two-year course where one year is spent in Professional Practice to gain hands-on experience through a paid placement. Students will be responsible for sourcing their own paid placements but will be supported by dedicated employability specialists. Please note: the Professional Practice pathway is only available for a September start.
