Introduction

This is a fantastic course designed to both develop and enhance your knowledge and understanding of international marketing, but also to develop and equip you with the necessary skills to thrive in a career in international marketing.

Although this course has been primarily designed for students who have already studied marketing or a related subject previously, it is equally applicable for motivated students who wish to develop cutting edge expertise in international marketing.

Whilst theoretically robust with an emphasis on applied critical thinking and analysis, this unique Master's course is grounded in real world issues. Throughout the course, extensive use is made of real world international marketing problems. As such, the focus of this course is the development of the applied international marketing leaders of tomorrow.

Due to the innovative course structure, at the end of the first term you have the opportunity to specialise in any one of the named marketing routes below:

  • Marketing
  • Marketing Communications
  • Marketing and Advertising
  • International Marketing
  • Brand Development
  • Business Development
  • Social Marketing

The highlight of the course is the opportunity for you to study and research a topic area of your choice in the form of a dissertation. Previously students have based their dissertations on topics that will help with their careers choices or subjects they have enjoyed studying during the course.

Teaching and Assessment

The varied marketing topics are studied in a range of ways including seminars, tutorials and lectures, case studies etc. Different modules have different teaching and assessment strategies, so some modules are based on individual work and others on group work. All teaching and assessment is grounded in real life situations and, where possible, live projects are incorporated into the teaching and use is also made of guest speakers. The development of your professional marketing skills is also a priority.
