Objective
The course is designed to better international marketing experience with a truly on-line business simulation game. During the simulation, student teams will manage the marketing department of a global telecommunications company and compete with other student teams in the simulated markets. Students will design and launch mobile PDA devices to the market place and compete in various consumer and business segments.
Content
The student will understand how marketing strategy decisions affect all areas of company management, including marketing, finance, investments and production. The simulation exercise is designed to demonstrate how the successful integration of marketing practices with each of these other formally separate business functions can enhance the overall performance of the enterprise.
