Course summary

Top up your existing qualifications to an honours degree. This BA(Hons) Business Management with Marketing (Top-up) is equivalent to the final year of undergraduate study, and is aimed at students who have previously completed a relevant qualification, such as a Higher National Diploma or equivalent.

Marketing is crucial to any business and one of the most exciting sectors in a fast-paced global economy.

Studying both subjects gives you an understanding of organisations and their management, and the diverse ways marketing is used to demonstrate the quality and usefulness of products, brands and services.

Our BA(Hons) Business Management with Marketing top-up course provides a solid foundation in both subjects, allowing you to experience a range of business disciplines and choose your career path as you develop. On successful completion you will be awarded a full BA(Hons) degree.

Analyse real business issues and learn about the market process, the business-to-business environment, traditional and digital marketing methods and global marketing.

Apply marketing theory to real businesses and develop crucial skills expected by employers.

Guest speakers, internships, competitions and an active Marketing Society ensure you have regular access to industry and the latest developments in the field.

The broad nature of this degree means diverse career pathways. Prospects are excellent, with many graduates going on to marketing or management roles.
