**About This Course**

On this Marketing and Management BA, 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 explore contemporary issues in marketing and develop skills in innovative and sustainable marketing strategy, planning effective marketing communication, and utilising digital marketing and social media channels, understanding consumer behavior and cultures, and analysing customer insights through market research. As part of this course, you will also gain experience, expertise and confidence in communicating innovative marketing ideas through group presentations, professional project reports and even short-form video artefacts.

Alongside the study of marketing, you will also develop skills in managing modern organisations, such as understanding and analysing the business environment, managing and processing digital data, and strategic awareness and analysis, as well as transferable employability skills through an applied business project.

Norwich Business School is a friendly and supportive school, with a lively, proactive and international cohort. All our teaching is informed by our real-world business experience and expertise, as well as our world-leading research.

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.
