Marketing Management
MSc Marketing Management
A postgraduate qualification in Marketing Management offers more career opportunities than ever before. As new marketplaces, such as China and India, open up and beckon the next generation of marketers, career paths are increasingly diverse and rewarding.
The marketing function is now recognised as key to organisational success. Consequently the focus of the course is to develop students’ marketing awareness and expertise, and as such, putting marketing theory into practice is a prevailing theme throughout.
The course is designed by research active tutors with extensive business experience in the marketing profession. The degree content at stage two is specifically geared to match the UK’s Chartered Institute of Marketing (CIM) professional syllabus and standards. The CIM is the largest professional marketing association in the world.
By acquiring the MSc in Marketing Management, the CIM will allow graduates to claim professional membership status without having to sit and pass CIM’s own Professional Postgraduate Diploma in Marketing.
