- Course objectives
- The entrepreneurial environment of the European Union is highly competitive and many aspects of entrepreneurship are guided and regulated through common policies set out by the integrated countries. On the other hand even despite the obvious impact of globalization and integration, entrepreneurs come to terms with a range of different national, regional and local specifics that significantly influence entrepreneurial activity. The course focuses on the development of basic marketing skills of prospective managers and employees of companies engaged in international business environment.
- Learning outcomes
- At the end of this course, students should be able to understand specifics of marketing within the EU market, be able to apply various techniques of marketing management in the international environment and be aware of the specific use of marketing methods, techniques or tools. These must be adapted to different conditions of individual EU member countries resulting from either cultural differences, different legislation or from other particularities of the environment. Students should understand how to seek opportunities and to spot threats in areas in which they do not appear (not until now) in the home market and to use the results of the environmental analyses to make marketing decisions with regards to the marketing mix applied in European Union markets.

- Teaching methods
- The course proceeds in a form of lectures and consultations with the active involvement of students. The emphasis is put on the individual work of group of students (seminar work) solving concrete marketing problem in the form of project and presentation of the results of project.
- Assessment methods
- The course finishes with a short test. Students are required to work on their project during the semester. Quality of project makes 80% of the assessment, the rest is based on the result of the test and active participation - case studies solution. Any copying, keeping a record of tests or carrying the tests out, using forbidden aids including any communication devices or any other breach of objectivity of the exam is regarded as a failure to meet the obligations of the subject and as a serious breach of study regulations. As a consequence, the teacher grades the student with "F" and the dean is allowed to initiate a disciplinary action, which might lead to the termination of the studies.
