Welcome to your course
We are delighted to welcome you to the Marketing Communications MA/MSc degree at the School of Management, Marketing and Experience Industry.
The induction activities are designed to introduce you to the University, your course and to your fellow course members before you begin your studies and your course leader will be available to advise and support you.
It is essential that you attend all of your induction events, to give you the best possible start to your time with us.
