Teaching methods
The lectures will be devoted to introduction of marketing research, of its methods, tools and best practices. After that the students realize their own market research in teams applying the knowledge from lectures and self-study.
Assessment methods
To pass the course the students are required to gain at least 60% of points in the test covering the theory of marketing research, to defent the seminar work (POT) and to gain mark A-E from POT. Final mark is computed as the weighted average of mark of written test (weight 33 %), and mark of work-in-progress POT (23 %), the final version of POT (40 %) and the quality of feedback related to other student`s project (7%).
Any copying, recording or leaking tests, use of unauthorized tools, aids and communication devices, or other disruptions of objectivity of exams (credit tests) will be considered non-compliance with the conditions for course completion as well as a severe violation of the study rules. Consequently, the teacher will finish the exam (credit test) by awarding grade "F" in the Information System, and the Dean will initiate disciplinary proceedings that may result in study termination.
