The School of Business and Management will be offering a BSc in Marketing and Management that incorporates compulsory taught modules in Year 1, but with a focused in-depth series of marketing modules to define a professional pathway in years 2 and 3. The programme is aimed at students wanting to: undertake specialised degrees in marketing and management, build specialist knowledge in the areas of marketing, marketing strategy and communications, follow a professional commercial career in marketing or management, develop and enhance skills in marketing methods and techniques that are specifically appropriate for marketing professionals and develop knowledge of advanced theory within this sub-discipline of business and management; its application to contemporary issues, and personal and professional skills that are transferable to other areas. Typically, each module runs for one semester (12 weeks) and normally features a one/two hour lecture and a one hour seminar per week. A lecture is led by an academic who lectures to a large group of students all of whom are taking the same module. Seminar groups have approximately 20 students. Seminar teaching involves a variety of student-centred activities which also include (but not exclusively) individual and group presentations, group work, and discussion groups. The BSc in Marketing and Management is a three-year degree, taught within the College’s modular system. You are expected to take eight modules per year, each of which is normally assessed by a combination of coursework (group reports, presentations, assignments) and/or an examination in May or June. You will therefore normally have taken twenty-four modules in completing your degree. Graduates from Queen Mary’s School of Business and Management go on to work in a wide variety of careers. Some apply their degree knowledge directly, entering careers such as business analyst or marketing and sales manager, whilst others transfer skills gained during study into areas such as media, law or finance. Recent careers activities in the School of Business and Management include QConsult, a 6 week project where groups of students act as consultants for real clients, on-site visits to RBS finance department, HR and banking mentoring from professionals, in-curriculum CV training, and fortnightly workshops training students in job search and recruitment skills. Students also have access to the QM Business and Finance Fair and 3 week ‘Focus on Finance’ programme.
