This program consists of a pathway program offered by StudyGroup at the International Study Centre at Liverpool John Moores University followed by entry into a university program offered at Liverpool John Moores University. In your international foundation year, you will study courses related to your intended field of study alongside English to develop and enhance your skills as a student. Advancement into your intended program depends upon the successful completion of the pathway program.

The International Foundation Year in Engineering, Computing and Life Sciences will familiarize you with a wide area of study. You will develop your critical thinking skills, creativity, analytical and team working skills, providing you with the most crucial skills required as a successful graduate.

As a career, marketing requires creativity, excellent organisation skills and an analytical mind. This degree provides a blend of cutting-edge marketing theory and practical skills to help you develop the high level of competence you will need to work in marketing.

LJMU has been teaching marketing for over 30 years and has built a strong reputation for its teaching staff, both in terms of their industry experience, commitment to students and connections with industry.

Another advantage of this degree is that students can choose to undertake an optional year studying abroad or working in industry between their second and third year of study. The optional year in industry means that you can spend 48 weeks on a paid work placement in the UK or overseas. This will enable you to put into practice many of the concepts and techniques developed in years one and two, as well as developing your personal skills and enhancing your CV. Many students who complete the placement year experience a marked improvement in their academic performance, with many going on to gain first class honours degrees. Many also return to work for their placement company after graduation.
