MARKETING

The course covers a broad range of marketing concepts, application of marketing strategies and the function and role of marketing in a company. First, the course will focus on the “mother” of marketing – economics. We will deliberately look at the fundamentals of economics from a 100% capitalistic standpoint and introduce the basic microeconomic principles such as supply, demand and trade. The major role of marketing in a company is determining, creating, communicating and delivering a value proposition that meets the needs of its customers. Also, marketing helps building long-term relationships with customers and ensures the company builds “customer-equity”. We will also look at why marketing skills are essential in any function of the company whether this is indeed marketing itself, R&D, finance, sales or manufacturing. Lastly we will focus on the communication skills which are essential in any marketing and business context. Course Objectives: * Economic theory is the cornerstone of free-market democratic capitalism and is the “mother” and foundation of marketing. Students will learn a few key basic micro-economic principles and concepts and how they affect the wealth of our nations. Students will learn how to make better-informed business decisions, decisions in their personal lives and better-informed political decisions.

DHBW STUTTGART School of Engineering / COMPUTER SCIENCE COURSES IN ENGLISH * The course provides a basic understanding of marketing concepts and practices, outlines the process to develop marketing strategies and marketing plans, and describes key strategic choices. Students will understand the role of a marketing or product manager and the nature of marketing decisions in a company. * Students will learn and be expected to apply the "language of marketing." By the end of the course students will have a solid understanding of marketing issues, the major decision areas under marketing responsibility. * The course provides an opportunity for a short business presentation and students will learn about the key elements of effective business communication. Learning methods include: Text and lecture to present the course content / In-class readings by the students of typical examples in the industry / Active class dialogue / Case analysis for application of key marketing concepts / “The Marketing Game” marketing strategy simulation for integration of the marketing concepts / Student presentation / Video of key economic ideals / Homework grading throughout the course to ensure deep understanding in the course content / Accumulated grading will determine a class ranking at the end of the course Exam: Presentation 11.
