A Czech cosmetics company will give the students a branding challenge.
No exam. The students should realize that it is very difficult to improve the final grade afterwards because the evaluation is based not only on the output of the project but also on the teamwork skills.
This course is executed in cooperation with TAMK Business Administration, Brno University of Technology in Czech Republic, Stenden University of Applied Sciences and Windesheim University of Applied Sciences in the Netherlands. Also, some students from a Belgian university will join this implementation.
Student time use 135 hours altogether. Generally there are 2 * 3 "class" hours per week. Part of the class hours (appr. 60 hours) will be reserved for working with the project and part of them for branding theory. However, students should notice that a great deal of the execution will be done outside class hours (135 - 60 = 75 hours)
Week 11 will be an intensive week and the students should prepare themselves to work with this course also outside the regular class hours.
Weeks 5 - 10 Branding theories, business case market analysis and consumer research.
Week 11 Intensive week: business case brand strategy planning initiation
Weeks 12 - 16 business case brand strategy building
