Course description
This unique programme is designed for those looking for an international marketing career. You’ll spend your first semester in Sheffield and the second at Hong Kong Baptist University. You’ll gain a critical understanding of essential marketing principles combined with specialist knowledge of marketing to global audiences.
Non-Hong Kong graduates of the programme can apply to stay and work in Hong Kong for 12 months after graduation.
You can read more about the semester in Hong Kong on the Hong Kong Baptist University website.
Applying for a visa
You'll need to apply for a visa in order to study in Hong Kong for the second semester. Hong Kong Baptist University provides support for visa applications, and these are usually submitted in October. For UK students, visa applications usually cost around £40.
Accreditation
Modules
The content of our courses is reviewed annually to make sure it's up-to-date and relevant. Individual modules are occasionally updated or withdrawn. This is in response to discoveries through our world-leading research; funding changes; professional accreditation requirements; student or employer feedback; outcomes of reviews; and variations in staff or student numbers. In the event of any change we'll consult and inform students in good time and take reasonable steps to minimise disruption. We are no longer offering unrestricted module choice. If your course included unrestricted modules, your department will provide a list of modules from their own and other subject areas that you can choose from.
