  Further information for students

  Understanding customers can be challenging. Still it creates the basis for business development. To whom do you develop your service to? Who is your customer and who is the end user for the product or service? How are you able to find all necessary information and make different decisions based on it? How do you use this information in service design or development?
  During this study unit we’ll go through different aspects of customer behavior. The focus and examples are from different digital services. In addition, you’ll get the possibility to analyze your own behavior as a customer.
  The study unit grade is based on weekly assignments which need to be completed and returned before the deadlines.
