MBS in Marketing (DC509)

Consultancy Projects

DCU Business School believes in giving students the opportunity put knowledge and skills in to action by working on real-life projects with sponsor companies. These projects enable students to meet with industry experts and potential employers, to put their new knowledge into practice, and to start building a marketing portfolio.
 
Sample sponsor companies include:

  • Cambridge University Press
  • Obeikan Research and Development
  • Futurelab
  • Paddy Power
Some projects form part of an inter-university competition such as the Google Online Marketing Challenge. The Google Online Marketing Challenge provides students with the opportunity to run a funded 3-week online marketing campaign for small-to-medium sized companies.

In some instances, sponsor companies will invite leading groups to present at their headquarters or offer additional prizes for outstanding work.
