Marketing (with Foundation Year) | Bachelor's degree | Business | On Campus | 4 years | Bangor University | United Kingdom
Our Marketing course (with Foundation Year) is a four-year course with an integrated foundation year which leads to the same qualification as our three-year honours degree. It has been specifically designed for those wanting to undertake degree-level study but who may not meet the entry requirements or have traditional qualifications.
The Foundation Year (Year 0) offers you the chance to expand and strengthen your confidence, skills and knowledge – ensuring that you are well-prepared and qualified to progress into Year 1 of the undergraduate degree.
By studying for a degree in Marketing, you will develop skills and knowledge of the key strategic and operational aspects of marketing, and you will gain an awareness of the external marketing environment. Strategic and operational aspects of marketing include the formulation of marketing strategies, managing the marketing function and its positioning relative to other key business functions, advertising and branding, customer relations management, applications of information technology, and e-marketing.
The external marketing environment encompasses consumer behaviour and consumer psychology, marketing communication, public relations and market research. This course program also provides coverage across the broader range of business and management subjects, developing knowledge and understanding of organisations, their management and the changing external environment in which they operate.
Graduates of this degree will be eligible for exemptions from some modules of the Chartered Institute of Marketing’s professional qualifications.
