Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

The course seeks to address advanced issues in academic research in the field of international marketing. More specifically, the course focuses on topics related to consumer traits and dispositions, in particular consumer xenocentrism. A group project provides students with the opportunity to apply theoretical knowledge to a real-life market context.

The course involves a combination of formal lectures, group presentations and discussions, placing particular emphasis on class interaction. All students must actively participate and contribute to the sessions. Therefore, they are strongly encouraged to study the material listed in the reading list below beforehand.

In case, due to COVID the course cannot take place on location, it will be offered online during the same dates/times. In this case, students are expected to have their cameras on during all sessions.

Art der Leistungskontrolle und erlaubte Hilfsmittel

Performance in the course will be assessed as follows:
- Group project 45%
- Final exam 45%
- Class participation 10%

Mindestanforderungen und Beurteilungsmaßstab

As the course has prüfungsimmanenten Charakter, attendance is compulsory throughout the semester (see also Admission and Attendance Policies on our homepage); more than three absences will automatically result in a failed grade.

Successful completion of the course requires a minimum grade of 50%. The grading system is as follows: 0 to 49% - grade 5, 50 to 59% - grade 4, 60 to 69% - grade 3, 70 to 79% - grade 2, 80 to 100% - grade 1.

Students who fail must repeat the entire course (and must register in the usual way next time the course is offered). No opportunities for make-ups will be offered.

Prüfungsstoff

The group project will be tackled in groups of 4-5 students and will involve group presentations and the preparation and presentation of a Market Research Report (further details will be given in the Introduction/Vorbesprechung session); the same grade will be awarded to all students belonging to the same group.

The final exam will be based on the material covered in the lectures and the literature provided.

No material other than a dictonary may be used in the final exam.
