“For me the BBM is very interesting because it is so international. There are people here from every corner of the world. It is also great being based in Brussels as it is such a centre of business as well as being amazing culturally diverse. I also like the way the courses are taught. The focus is on the practical application of knowledge, with many of the lecturers having extensive experience in their chosen fields.”

Odisee is the result of a merger between two Flemish university colleges, Hogeschool‑Universiteit Brussel and Katholieke Hogeschool Sint‑Lieven. For years both institutions were forerunners at the top of Flemish higher education. With Odisee both university colleges have started a new and very ambitious story in which our students (you!) will play a central role. Odisee University college offers six fields of study and 25 bachelor trainings on campuses in Brussels, Ghent, Aalst and Sint-Niklaas.

BACHELOR OF
Business Management with a Major in Marketing Major marketing companies are constantly looking for spirited commercial staff or marketing people. Are you flexible, do you feel that you have a commercial talent and that you have good communication skills? Do you have a keen interest in the exciting world of marketing and communications, distribution, sales, event management and international business? Then you will love our Marketing Major.
Focus on practice and variety We offer a practice-oriented training but we always have an eye for the strong theoretical underpinnings. Our students learn from practical projects which partner companies offer us as team assignments: e.g. market research projects, event organization, drafting a communication and a marketing plan. Sometimes we also work with business case simulations. Finally students must always present their advice to a panel of professionals. They develop a broad range of skills in the field of marketing (including e-marketing), ICT and communication in foreign languages. We also encourage our students to develop excellent social skills which must help them develop business contacts.
Intense contact with companies Intense contacts with business is the core characteristic of your practicebased marketing Bachelor study. Guest speakers, company visits and incompany-projects help you discover what doing business in real companies is all about. •
In your second year you get a taste of life in a sales practice in a company of your choice for two weeks.
•
In your third year you will have a three-month internship in Belgium or abroad to become familiar with the expectations and requirements of business life.
•
In the last year of your training a Bachelor thesis and an in-company project are on the program: this enterprise education equips you with the attributes, capabilities and skills that enhance your employability and enable you to be entrepreneurial.
Creating your specialist niche Our marketing training has three critical cornerstones: specialist marketing study, foreign languages and computer science. The specialist study covers everything ranging from broad marketing to very specific marketing niches. Business cases support everything we teach. Guest speakers, conferences, company visits, workshops and projects are all part of our training. Moreover, according to your interests and future plans, you can take a number of electives such as Event Management, Retail and Shop Management, Relationship Marketing, Business Strategy, Spanish, Real Estate Management...
