This degree provides a blend of cutting-edge marketing theory and practical skills to help you develop the high level of competence you will need to work in marketing. LJMU has been teaching marketing for over 30 years and has built a strong reputation for its teaching staff, both in terms of their industry experience, commitment to students and connections with industry.

This will enable you to put into practice many of the concepts and techniques developed in years one and two, as well as developing your personal skills and enhancing your CV. Many students who complete the placement year experience a marked improvement in their academic performance, with many going on to gain first class honours degrees. Many also return to work for their placement company after graduation. Alternatively, students have the option to study abroad in one of our partner universities. Liverpool Business School has partnerships with business schools at universities and colleges across Europe, in the USA and in China. Students on this programme are able to spend an additional year of study at one of our partner universities between the second and third years. All study abroad opportunities are taught in English. There are also many supported opportunities for activities at partner universities during summer vacations and Liverpool Business School provides free language skills courses.
