About Marketing (Top-Up), BA (Hons) - at University of Portsmouth

Overview

Refine your existing marketing knowledge to gain a full degree, while strengthening your skills in both traditional and digital marketing with this BA (Hons) Marketing Top-Up degree.

This degree is designed for those who have previously studied a related subject at higher education - such as completing two years of study on a bachelor's degree or HND course - and want to build on existing knowledge to convert previous learning into a full bachelor’s degree over one year.

You'll cover topics across product development, strategy and digital marketing, and have an opportunity to take part in our Business Consultancy Project, where you'll work in a consultancy team of four students to address a real business problem for a local organisation.

Further learn how to connect with customers, build strong brands and create effective marketing strategies. You'll also have opportunities throughout the year to gain hands-on experience, network with industry experts and apply your learning to real-world projects while learning how to promote ethical and sustainable practices.

Course highlights

  • Build on your existing studies to further develop your understanding of marketing essentials including consumer behaviour and brand management
  • Engage with real clients through our optional Business Consultancy Project, putting theory into practice during your assessments
  • Benefit from guest lectures and networking events featuring marketing experts from diverse industries
  • Learn from lecturers with practical industry experience who stay at the forefront of marketing trends and research
  • Take part in authentic assessment rather than traditional exam based assessments, which will immerse you in real-world challenges that build practical, job-ready skills
  • Flexible options in optional modules allow you to tailor your studies to your areas of interest
