Your professional future as an expert in Digital Marketing
Once you’ve completed your studies in the Digital Marketing Master’s programme, and established your expertise in the field, you can expect excellent career opportunities across a wide range of industries, with plenty of options to advance into a managerial position.
Some of the jobs you could pursue include…
Digital Marketing Manager
As an online marketing manager, you’ll work as a marketing all-rounder, responsible for making your company's website or online store have a real impact in the digital realm. To do so, you’ll work on optimising reach and conversion rates, align campaigns across channels, carry out strategic marketing planning and take care of the timing and budgeting of various marketing measures. You might also work in an expert function of this role, for example as an Online Marketing Manager for SEA, where your work will be focused on one area: in this case, search engine ads and advertising.
Head of Digital Marketing
As head of online marketing, you’ll act as a manager in the online marketing department of a company. In this position, you won’t be working on one specific focus area, but instead have a holistic view of the online marketing efforts. Based on data, you’ll need to take operational decisions in day-to-day business activities. You’ll know how to measure success and how to interpret metrics (e.g. CPC, ROAS, AOV, etc.). Your tasks will also include management and leadership decisions.
Performance Marketing Specialist
Performance marketing specialists are experts who approach and align online marketing in a performance-oriented way. In this position, your focus will be on the conversion rate and thus, for example, on the question of how prospects can become customers. You’ll plan and optimise the marketing budget to maximise the CPA (cost per acquisition) rate. In doing so, you’ll need to create and analyse campaigns through key performance indicators. In addition to developing the marketing communication strategy, you’ll need to constantly test all marketing activities and develop new channels for growth.
Recognition of Achievements
Have you already completed a training course, studied at a university or gained work experience? Then you have the opportunity to get your previous achievements recognised. By doing so, you save time and tuition fees – namely €30 per recognised ECTS point.
- Shortening your period of study: Skip individual modules or whole semesters!
