Designed for individuals returning to education or those who do not meet the direct entry criteria for a standard degree, this four-year programme provides a supportive, structured pathway into the professional world of marketing. By integrating an intensive foundation year, you will build the academic confidence, critical thinking, and communication skills necessary to thrive in higher education before transitioning seamlessly into the core Marketing BA curriculum.

A Multidisciplinary Foundation

The initial year (Year 0) is shared with students across various social science disciplines, fostering a collaborative environment where you will explore current social and ethical issues. This multidisciplinary approach is highly effective; data shows that students who complete this foundation year often achieve higher degree classifications than those who enter directly at undergraduate level. You will engage in portfolio-based assessments, including presentations and research projects, which help bridge the gap between academic theory and your future career interests. Upon completion, you will join the main Marketing BA cohort, gaining full access to industry-led content and the opportunity to work towards professional qualifications from the Chartered Institute of Marketing (CIM).
