In October I will be returning to University for my final year studying Marketing Communications BA in the Media School.<\/p>\n<p>One of the reasons I chose to study Marketing at Bournemouth University was the placement year. This placement has been has been extremely valuable experience and has taught me a lot about the working world. I hope to take many of the skills and experiences that I have acquired to Level H, where I will be undertaking optional modules such as Corporate Sponsorship, Brand Management and also writing my dissertation project.<\/p>\n<p>I am looking forward to a busy summer where I will not only be relaxing with family and friends, but also completing a short placement at Nissan Motors in the Events team in their Head Office. I will be assisting with various experiential marketing projects and also representing Nissan at the Goodwood Festival in London.<\/p>\n<p>Alongside my practical experience, I have just started to write my Logbook which is required for the placement year; this includes academic written assignments and a portfolio of work.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, I will be preparing for my final year of study this summer by reading academic articles which relate to areas of interest for my dissertation.
