Marketing Theory - MKTG820
In order to compete effectively in increasingly dynamic markets, firms must be cognisant of the importance of marketing and how it contributes to the achievement of strategic goals. This cognition is enhanced when they can effectively apply marketing theories to solve marketing problems. Marketing theories explain how and why value is created and offered to consumers and captured by the firm. Through appropriate identification and utilization of marketing theory, firms can deal with challenges from consumers as well as markets that may simply go beyond the traditional boundaries that are thought to operate.
In this unit, students will develop knowledge of differing perspectives and schools of thought about marketing theory, and contemporary debates on marketing theory and practice. Students will learn different insights into the foundations and evolution of marketing, and the effectiveness of applying differing perspective and school of thought about marketing theory in specific contexts.
