Course summary
What this course is about
UCAS code: N660
Here's what Northumbria University, Newcastle says about its Business and Marketing course.
Have your sights set on a graduate training scheme? Or looking to enter the world of marketing? With our BA (Hons) Business and Marketing course, you’ll combine broader learning of business with specialist studies in marketing.
During the course, you’ll gain a comprehensive understanding of marketing research and planning, with further module options digging down into areas including retail marketing,relationship marketing, content marketing, buyer behaviour and customer experience.
How does this course enhance my employability? Thanks to the 50-50 split between marketing and wider business studies, you’ll be well-placed to choose a career path in either discipline following your graduation – from specialist marketer to broader business roles. You will be encouraged to undertake a work placement, study abroad or combine both. In the final year, you’ll have the option to carry out a group consultancy project in the Faculty Business Clinic, a management enquiry project or a dissertation depending on whether you completed a placement. The management enquiry project will allow for working individually to investigate a real business issue, and gaining critical practical experience.
The course content has been developed in partnership with industry bodies the Data and Marketing Association (DMA) and the Chartered Institute of Marketing (CIM), providing professional-level knowledge that gives you exemptions from taking some of their official qualifications. It’s also covered by the prestigious Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) accreditation for Newcastle Business School.

They’re nice and giving but I believe that it can always be improved

Well I like the life I created but I just don’t like how unreliable the transport is from where I live although it’s something that the uni probably can’t help with

Even though the tuition fees are crazy expensive, i like how our SU is providing a student pantry or other ways to financially help the students

It’s okay because I only get it when I ask for it anyway

I don’t live in university accommodation since it’s expensive but I’ve heard that it’s okay depending on who you’re staying with. The university facility is really nice though so I like it but I hope that they can provide free hot water.

4th year student
Most of my tutors are really nice and they always reply to my emails. There is also a lot of group work that’s hard because I prefer to study on my own to get a better grade.
