Bachelor of Arts (Hons) in Marketing and Management with a Year Abroad University of East Anglia, UK

On this degree, you’ll explore the essential elements of marketing, from a theoretical and practical perspective.

Marketing is primarily concerned with understanding markets and the needs and wants of existing and potential customers. To better understand these principles, you’ll explore several approaches, including: consumer behaviour, segmenting, targeting, positioning, pricing, and marketing communications. You will also examine the theoretical frameworks that underpin the way organisations respond to market demand. By studying marketing and management together, you’ll gain a unique insight into the continuous changes and challenges of the business world.

You’ll have the opportunity to develop skills in market research, advertising, sales, and managing projects and organisations, while understanding the difference and value of business to business (B2B) and business to consumer (B2C) orientated products and services, and their related marketing strategies. As part of this course, you will also gain experience, expertise and confidence in presenting and communicating new ideas verbally and in written form.

Alongside the study of marketing, there is a focus on management skills, such as understanding the business environment, managing data in a digital world, strategic awareness and analysis, as well as an applied business project. In your first year, you’ll be introduced to the fundamentals of business. Then during your second and fourth years, alongside core marketing and management modules, you’ll study optional modules, and will have the option of undertaking a final-year project, allowing you to tailor your degree to suit your specific interests and future aims.
