Overview
Develop the professional skills you need to become a modern digital marketer on this CIM and IDM accredited BA (Hons) Digital Marketing degree.
You’ll learn to create digital marketing strategies for any organisation, and stand out to employers with a varied portfolio of marketing projects and live client work after you graduate.
Explore the creative and analytical aspects of digital marketing, combine hands-on client experience with detailed marketing theory, and use industry tools such as the Adobe suite, Google Analytics, Hubspot and social media dashboards throughout the course.
You’ll learn to communicate with customers through digital platforms, and how to measure the performance of your communications with data and analytics. After your first year, you’ll choose specialist topics to focus on such as advertising or product development.

This paid placement takes place after your second or third year of study, and you’ll benefit from support from the University Careers and Employability service as well as our Placement Club.
You’ll hear from industry experts and guest speakers throughout the course, and graduate ready to make an impact in the industry.
