-==
Course Description
(Prerequisite: BUS205 -
Marketing Management)
One of the most effective tools to
differentiate products or services from competitors is an organization's brand
identity. Strong brands will transcend industries and provide an organization
with one of its most valuable assets. Hence, strategic brand management is one
of the host marketing topics in recent years. To blend the theory and practice
of brand management, this course provides students with the knowledge and skills
needed to develop, manage and promote the core values of an organization's brand
in competitive markets. Particular emphasis will be placed on the design
of marketing programs to build brand equity. Students are expected to have
developed a basic understanding of brand management concepts and principles
through readings, case studies, and a course project for practical application
and experiential learning.
