Current student Róisín Waite from LV=, explains why she chose the
Econsultancy/MMU Masters in Digital Communications: "When I found
out that it is led by expert lecturers, most of whom work in the
field and can offer practical insight into the methods they teach,
that was the deciding factor. I'm really happy with the course.
It's highly relevant and the modules are bang up to date and I am
applying learnings to my day-to-day job. I wouldn't hesitate in
recommending it."
Ginny Hendricks from Ardent Marketing adds: "I've been impressed
with how up-to-date the content has been. Just within the space of
a single term there emerged new digital techniques that were
instantly incorporated into the course; I really feel like I'm
keeping ahead of the game."
Craig Hanna, Training Director, Econsultancy commented: "We are
delighted that the doors are now open to our third cohort of
students looking for a post graduate digital marketing
qualification. Our successful partnership with the MMU provides the
right balance of tuition and support, class and online learning and

been a pleasure to meet such a motivated group of people and we
