Content

This unit will focus on developing an awareness of current marketing research and the analytical skills to classify and understand that work. The primary aim is to bridge the gap between textbook learning and the analysis of academic literature such as journal articles. Selected topics include the philosophy of marketing science, empirical generalisations in marketing, marketing links to other disciplines, current research techniques in marketing, post-modern marketing and an examination of the literature in recently developing marketing fields (e.g. service marketing, the Internet, brand management, marketing public relations and relationship marketing).
