广告认可的毕业生文凭是在奥塔哥大学学习的最灵活，包容性最高的选择之一。竞争激烈的创意产业本质上是跨学科的：所需的能力范围从策略到艺术，从文案写作到数字工艺，从研究到商业。除了两篇核心广告论文MART 333，MART 469和MART 300级论文，您还可以包括任何部门的论文，并建立适合您个人目标的专业知识组合。其中包括创业大师课程的精讲论文，面向希望将数字和创意职业与初创企业结合起来的学生。
The Diploma for Graduates (DipGrad) endorsed in Advertising is one of the most flexible and inclusive options to study at the University of Otago. The creative industries are by nature multi-disciplinary, ranging from strategy to the arts, from copywriting to digital media production, and from research to business. Beyond the two core advertising papers MART 333, MART 469 and a MART 300-level paper, you may include papers from any department, and build a creative portfolio that suits your individual interests. This can cover creative marketing communication for careers in commerce, health sciences, sciences, and humanities. This endorsement has a special focus on how to use creative marketing for good to foster sustainable development, environmental conservation and social change.
