Course description

This course is under review for 2025 entry. We aim to provide a further update by November 2024. Please contact the school/department for further information.

This course is designed to take graduates from any discipline into careers in marketing management.

We don’t just teach the theory of marketing. There’s a lot of emphasis on applying what you learn in a business setting.

You can also apply to do a company-based dissertation, working with an external organisation. Recent dissertation projects include a branding review for a large law firm and working with a local, environment-led SME to study consumer behaviour.

Accreditation

The Management School is Triple Crown accredited by AMBA, EQUIS and AACSB.

We are currently seeking re-accreditation by the Chartered Institute for Marketing (CIM) for 2025-26 entry to this course.

Students who study with us are eligible to apply for CIM exemptions upon graduation from our programme. To achieve a CIM Certificate or Diploma in Professional Marketing/Professional Digital Marketing, further study is required via a CIM approved study centre.

You can find out more about CIM qualifications at CIM Accredited Degree and about studying for a CIM qualification on the support for members page.
