Course overview

Modern marketing blends creativity with analytics: knowing what to say, who to say it to and how to measure whether it worked. You will plan campaigns, analyse audiences and work with the digital tools that marketing teams use every day.

The course begins with a Foundation Year that builds study skills, academic writing, numeracy and confidence. Pass it and you continue straight onto the honours degree with no need to reapply, which makes it one of the most reliable routes back into education.
