Beyond the Degree: Where Marketing Can Take You

Are you a student considering a career in marketing? Wondering what the industry is really like and how to set yourself up for a strong start?

This free event is your chance to discover the endless possibilities a future in marketing can offer. You’ll walk away with fresh insights, practical advice, and a better sense of where your degree can take you.

Join us at the University of Canterbury on Wednesday, 13 August to hear from a panel of marketing professionals at different stages of their careers. From recent grads to seasoned industry leaders, our speakers will share honest stories, lessons learned, and tips for making the most of your time at university.

Marketing is a broad and exciting industry full of possibilities (we might be biased!). Come and get a taste of what your future in marketing could look like.

This event is organised and hosted by the MA’s Southern Committee.
