Course summary

What this course is about

UCAS code: N2N5

Here's what University of Manchester says about its Management (Marketing) course.

Our flexible management courses share a common first year before allowing you to focus on your chosen specialism to enhance your career prospects.

With a wide range of course units to choose from, you really can shape your own degree.

BSc Management (Marketing) will suit you if you are interested in strategic marketing management or in aspects of marketing such as market research, product development, brand management, integrated marketing communications, and retailing.

To graduate with BSc Management (Marketing), you need to have studied at least 40 credits of second-year options (one-third of your studies) and at least 60 credits of final-year options (half of your studies) from the marketing subject area.

Since the Management and Management (Specialism) degrees are identical in the first year, transfer between them is straightforward - so you should apply for only one of them.
