This BA (Hons) in Marketing and Event Management degree combines academic study with practical experience. During this course, you will have the opportunity to work with local events providers through placement and voluntary roles, learn from events and marketing professionals with global experience, and explore specific topics that interest you by choosing modules from your second year.  You will also benefit from the diversity of local events in Chichester, including Chichester Festivities, Arundel Festival, and the Goodwood Festival of Speed and Revival.

In your first year, you will share many modules with students from other business courses so you will gain an overview of business and the events industry. You will specialize in events management and marketing from your second year, and have the opportunity to explore other relevant topics including finance, HR, and project management. You will plan, design, and implement two assessed live events during the course. This is a valuable experience and means that you’ll have first-hand knowledge of events planning and management when you graduate.
