BA (HONS) CONTENT CREATION AND ONLINE MARKETING degree

What you can expect from your Content Creation degree

These days, having a sleek and consistent online presence is the best way to reach audiences and boost brand engagement. Opportunities have exploded in the digital marketing space in recent years, meaning there’s never been a better time to study content marketing at SAE.

If you’re keen to start a career in content creation or social media marketing, SAE’s BA(Hons) Content Creation and Online Marketing degree will get you there much quicker than a traditional university course. Taught over 2 years rather than 3, you’ll learn essential technical and theoretical marketing skills on this content marketing accelerated degree, so you can succeed as a content writer, brand manager or even social media influencer. 

At SAE, you’ll get comfortable using industry-standard software to create your content, including Adobe Premiere Pro, Adobe Photoshop, and Pro Tools. Across the course, you’ll experience the workflow involved in building a visual brand, from composing and editing to publishing digital content. You’ll also have access to SAE’s excellent facilities to help bring your creative ideas to life, such as podcast studios, green screens, post-production suites, and high-tech Mac labs.

Create your own course

As you take your marketing to the next level, you’ll learn practical skills like website search engine optimisation (SEO), digital image editing and video production. Both individually and in small creative teams with your fellow content creation degree students, you’ll create a large portfolio of creative work which will include websites, photography, podcasts, videos and more. You’ll also collaborate creatively with students from other SAE disciplines, producing engaging audio–video content, honing your interview and post-production techniques, and working with real-life businesses to develop online strategies and campaigns. 

Across your time at SAE, you’ll work closely with SAE’s Experts – talented entrepreneurs, creatives and educators from across the marketing industry. They’ll act as advisers throughout your content creation degree, teaching you how the marketing industry works, and making sure you pick up essential business, legal, financial and entrepreneurial skills. You’ll collaborate with them to structure your Major Project – an in-depth study of your chosen area of interest, planned in Trimester 5 and realised in Trimester 6. 

At the end of your 2 years with SAE, you’ll graduate with an impressive talent for digital storytelling, a head full of practical communications skills, exceptional marketing industry connections and the drive to make it as a successful marketing professional.
