Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

The course focuses on narratives in marketing communications. We use narratives (also known as stories) to communicate and convey our experiences. A narrative lens has been applied to various areas in marketing, e.g., ranging from advertising over entertainment (e.g., product placements in series) to storytelling by consumers (e.g., consumption experiences).

Students will work in groups on their research projects. Students will receive feedback on their presentations from the instructor and their peers.
