Tell me more

Marketing communications is central to any organisations' strategies. Similarly for the not-for-profit sector, marketing communications is a core activity. Therefore both categories of organisations not only need to understand and use it at strategic level, but also understand and apply the techniques and processes at an operational (day to day) level. Organisations realise that marketing communications is not just a 'business function' but is the interface between the business and its brand(s), and their customers, consumers and the public. Our marketing communications degree is designed to address both the inward and outward facing nature of the discipline, enabling students to fully understand and critique the role and practice of marketing communications in both the business and the social context.

Our Marketing Communications course is replacing the BA (Hons) Marketing course which has been running succesfully in various forms for over 20 years.
