Master of Marketing

The Master of Marketing at the Australian National Institute of Management and Commerce (Top Education Institute) is a two-year postgraduate degree for people who want to work in marketing at a professional level. You'll study consumer behaviour, market research, brand management, digital marketing, and marketing strategy. The course is built around the kind of work marketing teams actually do: analysing a market, building a campaign, measuring whether it worked, and presenting your recommendations.

As a master's degree, this course sits at level 9 on the Australian Qualifications Framework. At this level you study units of a set credit point value each, usually eight per year of full-time study, across semesters or trimesters. Most master's degrees include a capstone unit or project in the final stage, where you bring together what you've learned on a real marketing problem. Some courses also offer a research pathway. Check the official course page for the current unit list, credit points, and whether a capstone or research option applies to you.

Work-integrated learning is common in Australian marketing master's degrees. That can mean an internship with a company, a live client project, or a consulting-style unit where a business brings you a brief. If you're an international student, you can work up to 48 hours per fortnight while your course is in session, which is a practical way to get Australian workplace experience alongside your studies. After you graduate, the Temporary Graduate visa (subclass 485) post-study work stream lets eligible graduates stay and work in Australia. Confirm your eligibility and the current rules with the Department of Home Affairs.

You'll finish with skills employers ask for: reading data and market research, writing a marketing plan, managing a brand, running digital campaigns, and making a case for a budget. The degree suits recent graduates from any field who want to move into marketing, and people already working in sales, communications, or general business who want to specialise. It also works for career changers who need a formal qualification to be considered for marketing roles.

English proficiency is required for international applicants. IELTS Academic 6.0–6.5 overall is the common coursework-postgraduate standard, with TOEFL iBT, PTE Academic, Cambridge C1 Advanced, and the institute's own English programmes accepted as equivalents. The Department of Home Affairs sets a separate English threshold for the Student visa itself. Tuition is published on the CRICOS register under course code 0100487. Check the official page for current fees, intakes, and entry requirements.
