PROGRAM OVERVIEW
Fanshawe’s four-year Honours Bachelor of Commerce (Digital Marketing) degree program will provide you knowledge of the core fundamentals of business including business strategy, management, human resources, accounting and leadership. You’ll also receive cutting-edge training with specialized digital marketing courses, including brand management and media integration, analytics, strategic website management and search engine marketing.
YOUR LEARNING EXPERIENCE
A requirement for graduation is the completion of a paid Co-operative Education work term. This process combines your studies with paid, related work experience. Fanshawe will be there to help you find the right business fit for your dream. You’ll have access to consultants who will deliver classes, counsel and advise you as you move from the classroom to the real business world.
Upon graduating from this undergrad marketing degree, you may be eligible to complete a Master’s degree program at many other post-secondary institutions or complement your degree with a graduate certificate offered by Fanshawe.
You may also have the required knowledge to pursue industry designation(s). Professional designations often require two or more years of relevant work experience, or the writing of an exam, in addition to completing your academic studies. You may be eligible for the Project Management Institute educational component for the Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM) certificate.
Available in a traditional in-class format with September admission. A part-time, online (asynchronous) degree completion option is also available for students who have completed an advanced diploma in marketing.
