The aim of the MSc Marketing programme is to give participants an insight into both Hungarian and international marketing processes. They learn to carry out analytical tasks independently, to give greater accuracy to decision-making processes and to handle the complexities of domestic and international marketing issues by familiarizing themselves with the needs and desires of consumers in diverse sectors of the market.
To familiarize them with real business problems and possible solutions, there are opportunities for professional visits to businesses and in order to ensure a greater insight into institutional structures, external lecturers are regularly invited to give presentations. The high number of practical sessions and research tasks in the curriculum provide participants with ample opportunities for routine analysis and students are strongly encouraged to make contributions to the department’s research processes. Importantly, the programme also equips them with vital communication skills in foreign languages. This programme strives to achieve the development of students’ skills through the combination of theoretical and practical education, by encouraging training on an individual basis, and by employing a close mentor–student collaboration in the tutorial system.
Structure of studies
The total number of credits needed to complete the programme is 120 credits. The courses of the programme are divided into three categories: compulsory courses (95 credits), thesis courses (15 credits) and elective courses (10 credits).
Language requirements
TOEFL 513 / IELTS 5.5 /oral examination, TOEFL IBT test score of 66 or any standardised international English language exam corresponding with Hungarian B2 at the Bachelors level and C1 at Masters level.
If there is no standardised English exam, the University relies on an online interview. Applicants not complying with language requirements must enrol in a preparatory language programme. After having completed the language course and passed the requisite final examination, if there are no professional reservations on the part of the Faculty, admission to the selected Bachelor's programme is automatic.
