BA Business Management (Marketing)
About this course
Business management with a marketing specialism is a degree that develops both the broad commercial and organisational knowledge of business management and a focused expertise in the discipline of marketing. Business management provides the strategic and operational foundation, covering finance, people management, operations, and the analysis of competitive environments. Marketing adds the specialist understanding of how organisations understand and communicate with their customers, how brands are built and sustained, and how data and digital tools are used to reach and engage audiences effectively. At Arden University, this part-time, online programme gives you the flexibility to study from anywhere in the world without attending physical classes, making degree-level study accessible to students who need to fit their learning around employment, family commitments, or other obligations. You will cover marketing strategy, consumer behaviour, digital marketing, brand management, and research methods alongside the management disciplines that form the core of any business degree. A typical entry tariff of 88 points reflects the inclusive access standard of this distance learning programme. Graduates go on to work across marketing, communications, brand management, digital marketing, business development, and general management roles in organisations of all sizes and sectors. The online format is particularly suitable for those who are already working in commercial roles and want to formalise and deepen their knowledge. Postgraduate study in marketing, business management, or a specialist area of digital or brand management is a further option for those seeking advanced expertise or leadership roles.
