This joint-honours degree offers you the chance to study a degree in business with a creative focus.<br/><br/>Delivered by our Design and Marketing departments, with BSc Marketing and Design, you will develop a distinctive expertise in both fields and develop a solid understanding of their complementary and contrasting theoretical lenses.<br/><br/>You will develop a solid theoretical grounding in design principles and applications, learn how to produce design briefs, commission design work and manage marketing for any area, from packaging to online advertising. You will also gain design experience by responding to a range of design briefs, and you will be introduced to a range of creative industry-standard software packages to assist you in developing strong visualisation skills.<br/><br/>Throughout your three years, you will work alongside marketing and design majors, and the lively discussion between marketers and contemporary designers forms an important part of your course.<br/><br/>In your first year, you will learn about business models, new technologies, product development, sustainability, and how design interacts with social media.
