BED-3003: Consumer behaviour Work Load
10 credits (ECTS) | Objectives
The purpose of the course is to study the process of consumer choice, its determinants and its implications for marketing programs and public policy. Students will learn important concepts, principles, theories and models in order to describe, explain and understand consumer behaviour in national and international markets. | Contents
The course will concentrate on why consumer make purchases by developing an understanding of the various internal and external influences that impact on consumer behaviour. We will consider in turn the various stages of the consumer decision and consumption process and present a wide range of perspectives and theories that can be used to study it. There will be a particular focus on food consumption behaviour. The course will provide students with an understanding of the conduct of interpretation of research in consumer behaviour (i.e., research on consumer motives, attitudes, satisfaction, and loyalty). Another purpose is to help students appreciate the relevance of consumer behaviour on strategic and tactical marketing and management decision making (e.g., product development, pricing, distribution and promotion). | Compulsory prerequisites
