In the September term you will begin with the module Management in a Global Context, alongside Introduction to Marketing and The Economy. These core classes frame the programme’s focus on global, digital and sustainable marketing, letting you explore how brands operate across borders, online channels and environmental considerations from the outset.

Each week combines lectures, case-study analyses and group projects that mirror real-world marketing tasks. You will develop skills in consumer behaviour, branding, data analytics and strategic planning while gaining experience of industry practices through guest speakers and applied assignments. The course suits applicants who have achieved A-Levels, IB or BTEC qualifications in subjects such as Business, Economics or Maths and who wish to pursue a career in marketing, advertising or related business fields.
