The MSc in Marketing enables you to explore the exciting world of modern marketing and its pivotal role in helping to shape and steer corporate strategies in business and other professional sectors.

This one-year full-time course gives you an in-depth understanding of key academic marketing theories, current marketing industry issues and the opportunity to gain practical experience abroad.

We work with the leading UK professional body, the Chartered Institute of Marketing (CIM), to offer you the opportunity to gain professional qualifications by taking advantage of the exemptions CIM Accredited Degree provides.
