**A distinctive fashion marketing degree with an emphasis on core business skills and digital creativity.**
- Learn core fashion industry insights and benefit from our links with industry.

- Develop theoretical and practical business knowledge while enhancing your creative and digital skills.

- Gain professional recognition through opportunities for further accreditation from the Chartered Institute of Marketing.

You'll combine your creativity and enthusiasm for fashion with core business and management skills on this Fashion Marketing and Management course. Our focus is to develop your academic, practical, and aesthetic skills, in preparation for a marketing or business career within the fashion industry.

In addition, you'll have the opportunity to grow as a creative thinker, and develop your skillset and understanding of the wider global environment that supports the digital expansion of brands today.

Modules

Year one: you'll be introduced to the broader business and cultural environments that link and inform the fashion industry. You'll start to develop your digital skillset and understanding, and explore how fashion brands communicate.

Year two: to accompany the core fashion modules, you'll have the opportunity to choose four modules that support your own career goals, allowing you to focus on media creation, business management, fashion in context, or a mix of all three.

In the second semester, you'll have the opportunity to connect with and explore the brand of your choice, giving you an insight into how a business functions, and allowing you to develop your understanding of an employer's needs.

Final year: your final year allows you to focus on projects that support exploration and development relating to the sector of the fashion industry that you would most like to work in.

Assessment methods

You'll be assessed through a variety of projects, exams, presentations, and reflective pieces.

You'll be taught through weekly lectures, seminars, and workshops. Group projects, independent research, open discussion, guided readings, guest speakers, live projects, and individual submissions will enhance your learning.

Want to join a fast-moving, diverse industry that's at the cutting edge of tech? Try marketing! A lot of the jobs are in London, but graduates don't just go to work in advertising agencies — all sorts of industries do their own marketing these days, and with the rise of digital and mobile technology, a lot of marketing is done in quite innovative ways using a wide range of methods. Common industries (apart from advertising and PR) include recruitment, online retail, higher education, banking and IT. A lot of jobs in this industry are handled through recruitment agencies, so if you get in touch with them early, that might give you a headstart for some of the jobs available. But be careful — unpaid working is not the norm in the marketing industry, but it is more common than in most sectors.

As only a small number of students take courses in this subject area, there isn't much information on what graduates do when they finish, so bear that in mind when you review any stats. Management, finance and business roles are common, but it's a good idea to ask tutors what previous graduates taking specific courses went on to do when you're at an open day.
