Bachelor in Business Studies: Marketing & Sales specialisation

Behind every great brand is a strategy. The Marketing & Sales specialisation teaches you to build those strategies and develop the commercial skills you need to bring them to life across any market. 

CAREER OPPORTUNITIES

Your future in marketing and sales

Marketing and sales are at the commercial heart of every business. This specialisation prepares you for roles such as brand manager, marketing consultant, head of sales, product manager or chief marketing officer – across both established corporations and fast-growing companies. Working hands-on with corporate partners on real business cases, you will be ready to make strategic marketing and sales decisions with confidence. For those with broader ambitions, this specialisation also provides the tools for developing products, reaching customers and building brands with lasting impact.

The programme covers both the strategic and operational sides of marketing, including traditional and digital communication formats, advertising design and the management of integrated campaigns. Throughout the programme, you will collaborate in diverse international teams, sharpen your presentation skills and learn to deliver results under real commercial pressure – the same skills that define successful marketing and sales professionals at the world’s leading companies.
