Why do people do the things they do? Why do they buy the things they buy? How can you nudge them to choose your product or service? Learn the latest theories of consumer behaviour and market needs, and how to translate this into solid marketing strategies to help organisations grow. You will explore up-to-date marketing theories – many of the electives in the MSc Marketing Management would not have even been in the curriculum five years ago because it evolves so fast.  

You can customise the programme with one of these elective tracks: brand and product management, or digital marketing and analytics. You’ll graduate with the knowledge, tools and tactics you need to create value for any kind of company or organisation.

More about the programme

Hear from our current students

It is demanding and equally fulfilling. We have guest lectures and real-life applications, group work and assignments that keep us on our toes and we need to keep up, so it is very challenging. And yet I am always surprised by how much I am actually learning. There is a focus on understanding marketing research, and I definitely feel like I have gotten way better at this. This master programme is a very international environment, and there are very intelligent people in the group. You need to be independent and manage your own work. You are expected to know certain terms, how to write reports and how to study efficiently. We often use case studies and practice data analysis – this is great preparation for the thesis.
