Description:

The Gordon S. Lang School of Business and Economics offers a MSc in Marketing and Consumer Studies, a program for students who want to gain expertise in an area that has been, and always will be, critical to achieving success in any market - understanding consumers. You will be equipped with advanced theory-based research skills that will prepare you for a career in marketing research, brand management or academia.

You can complete your degree within two years. In the first year, you will complete your course work in small, dynamic classes which allow for collaboration with faculty and your peers. Following your course work, and with the guidance of your advisory committee, you will conduct original research and develop a strong thesis to add to the marketing and consumer behaviour literature.
