(*)The teaching and learning strategy is designed to develop a sound understanding of advanced topics in B2B marketing in both conceptual and practical perspectives.
The seminar adopts the flipped classroom logic. For each of the first five units students are provided with readings that have to be worked through in advance, with classroom time then being used to deepen understanding through a structured discussion with peers and the instructor. In addition to self-directed learning, instructor’s input and class discussions, the teaching and learning methods also include the use of case studies.
