Frequently asked questions
Does a marketing bachelor's contribute to a professional certificate?
The Chartered Institute of Marketing (CIM) matches some marketing degrees with its own certificates through the Graduate Gateway. Graduates of an approved degree can take one assessment instead of three for most certificates. Lancaster University's Marketing BSc is CIM accredited; a 2:2 or higher degree is required for the exemption.
Can you work in industry for a year while studying marketing?
Yes. In Loughborough University's Marketing BSc, a one-year placement is optional; this way the program takes 4 years and the graduate also receives a Diploma in Professional Studies. In the University of Bath's Management with Marketing, the placement in year 3 is compulsory and placements are usually paid.
Can a marketing student study one year in another country?
Loughborough University's Marketing BSc has this option. Students can spend a year at one partner university or six months each at two different schools. Those who complete it receive a Diploma in International Studies (DIntS). It is also possible to split the placement year into six months of work and six months of study abroad.
