Overview
The course has been created to encompass a broad range of practice and emergent processes which include emerging digital marketing concepts, strategic marketing with an emphasis on digital outcomes, analytics to inform your decision-making, and marketing via social media - all supported by innovation and creative practice.
The combination of these areas of practice will aim to support and develop individual interests through the delivery of a distinctive, discursive, participatory, activated experience in which a series of briefs and collaborative projects are used to bring students critically closer to the kind of practitioner they wish to become.
The unique advantage of studying an MSc in Digital Marketing is that it not only equips you with the design and conceptual idea generation which supports work at the intersection of digital communication and modern technology but also enhances your professional practice skills which support entrepreneurial and business focus.
