Master of Marketing
Launching in 2025, UC’s new Master of Marketing is designed to equip students from non-marketing backgrounds with the advanced marketing knowledge and skills necessary to build a career in marketing.
With a strong emphasis on digital marketing, the Master of Marketing will prepare students to thrive in today’s fast-paced and tech-driven marketing landscape. Through hands-on projects, students will apply what they learn and build a portfolio that sets them apart.
The new programme is set to replace the Marketing major within the Master of Business starting February 2025. This specialised Marketing programme will provide in-depth, targeted expertise, ensuring graduates have the confidence and capabilities to create impactful marketing strategies.
