Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

The course aims at deepening students' knowledge in the subject of marketing and providing a sound introduction to the management of brands and products. Brands and how they stand out from products, how they are built up, developed and what added value they have are discussed. The course is intended to encourage further study of the subject of marketing.
The course offered is intended to achieve the following goals:
- Expanding knowledge of the subject of marketing (building on the introductory courses).
- More detailed study of brand development as an effective means of retaining customers and increasing a company's turnover.
- Improve understanding of academic articles and their practical applications

The target group of the course is primarily students of the Bachelor's degree programme in Business Administration who have chosen the professional field of Marketing Management in the specialisation phase.

Theoretical contents are explained in a lecture. Each unit (except for the first event and the two tests) consists of an approx. 10-minute group lecture of an academic article by the students, an approx. 30-minute lecture of theoretical basics by the teacher and an approx. 40-minute application of what has been learned. Please note: the accompanying study of literature is absolutely necessary, as not all contents can be covered within the framework of the lecture.

Assessment and permitted materials

The course is an advanced university course with continuous assessment of course work. The performance evaluation will be assessed as follows:
- Presentation (10%) (Group work with approx. 5 students)
- Individual in-class participation (10%)
- Midterm exam (35%)
- Endterm exam (45%)

Students who fail must repeat the entire course (and must register in the usual way next time the course is offered). Oppurtunities for makes-ups can not be offered. The midterm exam covers the content of the lectures held prior to the exam date, the endterm covers all lectures of the course. Successful completion of the course requires a minimum grade of 50%.

Attendance is compulsory throughout the semester. More than three absences will automatically result in a failed grade. A penalty-free deregistration from the course is possible up until the 14.03.2022. Students who have not deregistered until then, will be evaluated based on their course performance.

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

1 ≥ 88%
2 ≥ 75%
3 ≥ 63%
4 ≥ 50%

Examination topics

The examination material includes the contents of the course as well as the listed literature on which the individual units of the course are based.
For the exam preparation, the students will be provided with course materials via Moodle, which follow the contents of the textbook.

Reading list

The relevant literature for this course will be announced during the semester. It will consist of up-to-date scientific papers and chapters from relevant textbooks covering the specific contents of this course.
