About This Course
The Bachelor of Commerce (BCom) Honours in Marketing Management is an NQF level 8 honours degree listed among IMM Graduate School's marketing qualifications. It is designed for commerce graduates who majored in marketing and want advanced knowledge of strategic marketing, branding, digital marketing and marketing research, together with the research skills expected at honours level.
IMM offers two study modes. Blended Hybrid learning adds optional face-to-face or live virtual classes at its student support centres, while Distance learning is fully flexible. Both use IMM's eLearn platform, with study materials, interactive content, live and recorded lectures, discussion forums and student support.
As a CIM-accredited institution, IMM aligns its marketing programmes with the professional standards of the Chartered Institute of Marketing. The honours year typically includes advanced coursework and a research component, and it prepares graduates for senior marketing roles or for master's study such as IMM's MPhil in Marketing.
The degree suits graduates of IMM's BCom in Marketing and Management Science and similar degrees from other institutions. Note that IMM also offers the BPhil Honours in Marketing Management, which is aimed at graduates with Marketing 3 as a major.

Course intelligence for Bachelor of Commerce Honours in Marketing Management
Data-driven planning insights for this specific course: job market outlook, NSFAS funding, and how competitive admission is likely to be.
Job market outlook
Good sign: Sales and Marketing Manager appears on South Africa’s National List of Occupations in High Demand, a Department of Higher Education and Training analysis of employer hiring activity. Employers have been reporting real recruitment pressure for this role, which generally works in your favour once you’ve completed Bachelor of Commerce Honours in Marketing Management.
NSFAS funding
NSFAS does not usually fund students at private institutions like IMM. Ask IMM directly about its own bursaries or payment plans, and check whether a sector SETA offers funding for this field.
Admission chances
IMM’s intake and this course’s requirements with its published admission requirements generally leave more room than the most sought-after courses, so you likely have a reasonable window to apply without rushing, though applying early is always the safer bet.
These insights are estimates generated from South Africa’s National List of Occupations in High Demand (DHET, November 2023 draft), NSFAS’s published funding rules, and this university’s general applicant demand. They’re planning guidance, not a guarantee. Always confirm funding and admission specifics directly with IMM and NSFAS.
