Testimonials

  • Raja Nadeem Ashraf
    Extended MSc Marketing with Advanced Practice
    "I love the learning environment, the lecturers use a mix of theoretical and practical teaching styles that are always tailored to our needs. They are extremely enthusiastic and informative and always there to support me if I need assistance. This makes me confident that I will succeed in my studies."

Advanced Practice

The compulsory Advanced Practice element of this programme takes place after you have studied the taught modules at the Masters’ stage and will enable you to undertake a 15-week long internship, or applied consulting project, working with a real organisation on a live business problem. This gives you the opportunity to gain experience of the workplace environment and/or practical experience of the “real world” issues faced by those currently engaged in marketing.

The Advance Practice stage module provides an excellent way to put your learning into practice and hence, enhance your employability. It also provides you with an enhanced knowledge of the workplace which will facilitate the completion of your Dissertation. Please note if you undertake an internship this maybe paid or unpaid.

Delivery

Teaching methods used are designed to develop professional as well as practical skills and place emphasis on group work and experiential learning. Lectures, seminars, workshops, guest speakers, with industry-specific knowledge, directed reading, electronic resources and case studies are combined to offer a unique and rewarding learning environment. Through the use of regular study groups, students will be encouraged to work collaboratively and learn from the experience of others’ work situations.

In addition to your time in class, around 12 hours per week, you will be expected to engage in approximately 30 hours of self-study time per week.

You’ll be taught by experienced lecturers who will bring the practical business-related experience into the classroom to enable students to understand how business works in the real world.

You will have access to Blackboard, our online learning environment, where you can access module resources and reading lists that will assist your preparation for classes and self-study.
