The course "Foundations in International Marketing Management" is closely linked to the course "Applications in IMM".

Students will learn how to ...
- evaluate core concepts in international marketing and their applicability to managerial challenges across industries and countries
- assess the value of emerging concepts for the overall international marketing framework
- learn to apply key concepts in international marketing to specific company/market situations
- identify research methods to solve specific challenges in international marketing through relevant secondary data sources
- structure and restate complex international marketing challenges
- gather and filter information efficiently and effectively on a specific research topic
- learn to organize teamwork efficiently and effectively
- develop critical thinking
- defend developed arguments
- not only learn how to communicate information, but also develop creative ideas to get the message across
Please note that the IMM Welcome Event will be held on the 2th October from 5 pm - 7.30 pm in the LC.2.400 Clubraum
