Why study Business Management and Marketing?

Our Business Management and Marketing degree course was designed by top marketing practitioners and academics. It takes into account what employers say about new marketing recruits, what they need from them and this programme aims to meet these needs.

Employers want young marketeers who can:

• Apply marketing ideas and theories in practical situations – whether in planning what to do or in implementing ideas
• Use the latest technological innovations, including the web and social media, to plan and deliver marketing campaigns
• Achieve the best professional management and ethical standards and apply them to the marketing world – with colleagues, businesses and customers 

We aim to give you practical experience through our extensive placement and mentoring programmes, which will equip you with hands-on skills and guidance from industry professionals. You will organise your placement with the help of the Workplace Learning Team and can choose to do it in a location that suits you.

• You will receive a Level 5 Diploma in Management and Leadership from the Charted Management Insitute (subject to CMI moderation).
• Marketing consultancy training
• Work placement opportunities integrated into the second and third year of the programme.
• Rose 29 places in the 2023 Complete University Guide
• Degree includes a placement year of paid work experience

Application methods

There is a range of methods for international students to apply to study an undergraduate or foundation degree at St Mary's.

Most international applicants will apply directly to St Mary's University, but can also apply either via UCAS or through an agent. American applicants can also apply through the Common App system.

Direct applications

If we are your only choice of university and you don't wish to indicate any others on your application, then we are able to accept direct applications via our International Undergraduate online application system.

When you submit your online form you will need to upload the following:

• Copies of academic transcripts and certificates
• A copy of your English language requirements (if needed)
• A copy of your passport
• Visa history questionnaire

If for whatever reason you don't have these details available at the time you are still welcome to send the application, but we may not be able to make a full assessment or offer until we have all the information required.

Please note: original or official copies of these documents may be requested as part of the process.

Apply directly

UCAS application

If you are applying to more than one UK university, you may want to apply through the UCAS (University and College Admissions Service) application process, used by the majority of UK and EU students.
