Course summary

The course title has been simplified from Marketing with Advertising and Digital Communications to Marketing with Advertising to provide a clearer and more accessible description of the degree. Digital communications remain an integral part of the curriculum; however, they are now embedded throughout the course rather than presented as a separate area of study, reflecting the reality of contemporary marketing and advertising practice.
