Department of Marketing, Tourism and Destinations
Our Undergraduate and Postgraduate degrees are designed by our specialist team with industry experts to ensure that the programmes offer the latest academic and industry knowledge, and enable our students to develop skills that create career ready professionals upon graduation.
If you have a passion and curiosity for creating new events, enthusiasm for destinations, or excited to learn how to market ideas, products and services, then our programmes will aid you to make this a reality. All our Undergraduate management degrees in Events, Tourism, Marketing and Digital Marketing have regular high profile industry speakers, opportunities throughout the programme to work on live projects, and a focus on building industry skills and awareness.
Critically, in a time where climate change is impacting our everyday habits and the lives of people around the world, businesses also need transformational leadership, creative problem-solvers, project management, digital transformation, and innovation skills to lead the way to a better future, attributes which are embedded across all our programmes.
Our Postgraduate Management, Digital Marketing and MBA degrees also benefit from regular high profile guest speakers to expose them to the industry’s cutting edge, developments and opportunities.
Internships are available on some programmes at post-graduate level, while all Undergraduate degrees offer work experience. This is in the form of a five-week work placement in the second year and opportunities to undertake a placement year.
We are a member of Principles for Responsible Management Education (PRME) and we are embedding sustainability across our programmes. We also work closely with professional bodies such as the Chartered Institute of Marketing and Tourism Management Institute so that our students’ degrees have the professional recognition to give them a head start in their careers.
