Advertising program structure
Advertising can be studied at various undergraduate and graduate levels, from associate degrees to doctoral qualifications.
A two-year associate degree will give students an introduction to the field and prepare them for entry-level employment or further study. A bachelor’s degree usually takes three or four years to complete and provides students with a comprehensive understanding of advertising.
If you want to begin your career in management or academia, you’ll probably need to complete a postgraduate qualification with a narrower focus. An MA usually takes one or two years to finish, whilst a PhD takes around five years of study.
Most advertising programs are taught through a mixture of lectures, seminars, workshops, tutorials, and visits to industry experts. You’ll likely be assessed through a combination of written exams, essays, reports, presentations, team projects, and creative portfolios.
Although every advertising program will be slightly different, most programs share similar modules, including:
- Introduction to advertising
- Advertising and promotion
- Campaign planning
- Brand management
- Direct and digital marketing
- Consumer behavior
- Marketing research insights
- Contemporary issues in advertising
