In personal matters, you can contact the lecturer by email or phone or arrange to meet him or her.

Further information for students

Understanding customers can be challenging. How do we define what is valuable for an individual customer? What about organizations as customers? Today, many of the trends are international, but their local interpretation and implementation may still be very multifold. The study of the human mind has gone a long way, but part of the mind’s operations, especially on individual level, still remain difficult to forecast.
During this course we will define the factors that underlie customer actions, feelings, and judgment processes. We strive to understand purchasing decisions from the perspective of the individual and the organization, and analyze patterns and trends in customer behaviour.
The course grade is composed of two assignments which both need to be successfully completed and handed in by the deadlines. The assignments that arrive late will be graded only if the late handing in has been agreed in advance with the teacher.

Recommended or required reading

The work space of the study unit in Optima contains a collection of tips for supplementary material. You will be granted access to this work space at the beginning of the study unit.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

During the study unit, you will make a career plan either as an employee or an entrepreneur and polish your job search skills as well as analyse your own networks. The study unit is based on guidance, and includes a discussion on the personal study plan with the tutor teacher in both semesters. The purpose of the guidance is to make you think about different options, not to give complete solutions. As a student receiving guidance you are responsible for your own decisions and the direction of your career. The discussions on the study plan are conducted either in person or in goal-oriented small groups. During the study unit, the tutor teacher will also give guidance on practices related to studying.
Optima will be used for communication during the study unit so it is important to make sure that you give permission for all messages from the system. In order for the guidance, advise and communication in the study unit to work smoothly, please use the conversation area in Optima for all questions and matters that do not require personal communication with the lecturer. In personal matters, you can contact the lecturer by email or phone or arrange to meet him or her.
