MSc Strategic Marketing
The MSc Strategic Marketing is focussed on developing high level knowledge and skills in marketing. Marketing is more than just an organisational function. It is a customer-centric, enterprise-wide set of processes, systems and activities that connect firms and customers in a dynamic global marketplace. This global market place is interconnected and one of the underlying themes in this programme is that of relationships. While marketing is partially transactional, deep long lasting relationships are a feature of marketing practice. Relationship concepts underpin this programme through consideration of issues such as sales management in an international environment, increasingly important in a post-Brexit Europe, and the value of analytics to help organisations understand the big data environment in which firms operate within. Consumers today are more discriminating and perceptive. This programme will develop your understanding of how consumers make decisions in the current environment.

This intensive and fast-paced specialist masters programme develops a high level of competence in marketing strategy across the programme. Modules are delivered over two semesters (September - January & February - May) with the Business Research Project/Placement conducted between May and August. The programme will generally be delivered through lectures, presentations and intensive workshops, generally in blocks of two full days every two weeks, followed by less structured supervision contact over the third (summer) semester for those taking the Project option. Modules have been chosen to reflect the current business and marketing environment. A key innovation is the concept of Marketing Live, which gives you the opportunity to put your marketing knowledge into practice with a live client on a real marketing problem.
