Course overview

Sophisticated and strategic marketing is at the heart of any successful business, but marketing is not just a field of study; it’s a dynamic force that drives businesses, shapes brands, and influences consumer behaviour. Over the duration of your degree, you will complete a carefully structured suite of modules that will arm you with highly sought after skills and knowledge to increase your employability within the dynamic and vibrant marketing industry. Aiming to become a marketing professional who is able to adapt to changing trends and technologies, we encourage the development of specific skillsets in increasingly important areas such as marketing communication management, relationship marketing, social media management, and the international marketing environment.

You’ll also develop a critical understanding of the subject within different business contexts, coupled with the problem-defining skills to help you interpret and translate data to inform marketing decisions. The modules you cover, from digital marketing to ecommerce and omni-channel marketing, from performance marketing to brand innovation and management, are all highly relevant and aligned to real-life practice. A Foundation Year is the perfect way to boost your academic skills, build your confidence and develop your wider subject knowledge so you can succeed at Winchester.
