Our joint programme is taught in two different locations to provide a unique multicultural experience, and you will benefit from the knowledge, perspectives and research-based training shared by two internationally acclaimed business schools. The programme also provides you with a unique opportunity to study marketing from a strategic perspective, while at the same time specialising in the analytics and metrics areas of the field. It covers all major topics within the field of marketing, from statistical methods, digitalisation and how culture influences consumer behaviour. The first year of the programme will be located in the urban and modern city of Oslo. For the second year, you and your classmates will complete your studies in the historical and cultural city of Rome.

Your skills will be relevant for a wide range of positions in marketing-oriented organisations focused on building and delivering value to customers.
