Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

This seminar is part of the Major in Marketing and International Marketing. Participants will work on emerging topics in marketing or marketing-related domains. In most cases, there will be an overarching theme that connects these topics. The specific topics will be announced in the kick-off.

This seminar has several learning goals:
• Familiarize students with emerging topics within the broader field of marketing.
• Improve students’ understanding of scientific work and increase their ability to synthesize relevant findings.
• Increase students’ analytical skills and their ability to link conceptual / theoretical knowledge to practical implications.
• Improve students’ academic writing skills, as well as their communications and presentation skills.

Assessment and permitted materials

The final grade consists of three components:
Class participation 10%
Group presentation 40%
Final report 50%

Participants will be assigned to groups of three and will work on a pre-defined topic or research question (students’ preferences will be taken into consideration whenever possible). Each group will receive a few references which will serve as a starting point for the investigation. The groups will need to identify and critically discuss all the relevant literature. We also appreciate if the investigation is enriched with additional data (these might include analyses of industry practices, expert interviews, case study, analysis of available secondary data, etc.). We expect participants to develop new research insights and highlight also relevant research opportunities.

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

Students achieving less than 50% will fail the course and need to retake the course. Attendance in the first class is required. Class attendance is expected throughout the seminar.

1 ≥ 88% (44 points)
2 ≥ 75% (38 points)
3 ≥ 63% (32 points)
4 ≥ 50% (25 points)

Examination topics

Performance will be assessed based on the seminar paper (group report), the group presentation, and class participation (individual).
