Why choose Consumer Marketing?
- You are interested in the consumer as the centre of the marketing process, emphasising human behaviour and consumer psychology.
- We all consume on a daily basis, so this track is closely linked to your own life and experiences as a consumer. That makes the theories and examples discussed more concrete and relatable.
- The track offers opportunities for cross-pollination and collaboration with students from the complementary Digital Marketing track, via shared course work and assignments.

Sound marketing thus requires a detailed understanding of consumers and the broader context of their lives: who are they, what do they do, and (perhaps most importantly) what drives their behaviour and decisions?
