Strategic marketing in social contexts

MKB3804

Synopsis

The marketing discipline can add value beyond commercial settings, particularly in the not-for-profit and government sectors.

This capstone unit will consolidate your marketing knowledge using a marketing planning framework. You will use non-traditional marketing contexts to elevate your understanding of the role and purpose of marketing beyond commercial applications. Specifically, you will gain experience in applying marketing concepts and tools traditionally used for commercial purposes to a range of health and social contexts in order to bring about positive change in society.

The unit's strong focus on developing skills in the areas of planning and implementation will benefit students seeking to pursue careers in both the profit and not-for-profit sectors.
