About Marketing With Psychology Bsc Hons in Lancaster University

How do people decide what to buy? How can you influence business relationships through marketing strategies? Is social media changing consumer behaviour?

If you are interested in the application of psychology in a business context, this degree gives you an in-depth understanding of human psychology and how consumers think, feel and make decisions, taught jointly by our Departments of Marketing and Psychology. You will be exposed to marketing and psychology-related topics, allowing you to develop a distinctive expertise in both fields of study.

In your first year, you will gain a solid foundation in psychology, key marketing concepts and techniques. You will also study another subject of your choice from Social Sciences, the Management School or another university department.

The second year sees you learn about areas such as Marketing Research, Cognitive Psychology, Marketing in the Supply Chain and Consumer Behaviour. You will also carry out market research projects with real clients, putting theory into practice and strengthening your professional consulting abilities.

Final year students learn Advanced Social Psychology, Strategic Marketing and Advanced Topics in Consumer Behaviour. You will also choose from options such as The Psychology of Cooperation, Strategic Negotiation and Critical & Creative Communications.

Across three years, you acquire in-depth knowledge and develop a solid understanding of the complementary and/or contrasting theoretical lenses between the two disciplines, working alongside both marketing and psychology majors.

Experience in both marketing and psychology provides an excellent foundation for a career in marketing and market research. We are ranked third in the UK for graduate prospects for marketing by the Complete University Guide, and we are proud that past marketing graduates have progressed to senior positions in top agencies such as Ogilvy & Mather, Leo Burnett, and Grey Advertising.
