(1.0 unit)

Globalization is reaching a level of unprecedented growth. Within the last decade, world trade in merchandise and services has grown at a rate of 140 percent. International marketing, the study of developing communications and conveying value across nations, is often aggressively pursued and yet misunderstood. Firms are increasingly aware of the major international business blunders, too often, that are associated with marketing mistakes. To succeed in a world of constant changes and lightning growth development, firms need to prepare themselves thoroughly and take a proactive response in marketing across borders. This course explores the theory and practice of marketing on a global magnitude. Special emphasis is placed on knowledge about the increasingly important big and emerging markets (BEM). The ultimate goal is to provide students with the conceptual and analytical tools that will enable them to develop effective international marketing plans with the purpose of capturing global market opportunities while carefully avoiding the most common pitfalls in the world trade arena.

Many factors affect marketing in the 21st century, including changing technologies, globalization, deregulation, and customer empowerment. In this course students learn about the latest technologies driving purchase decisions around the world. Whether it is blogs, Facebook, LinkedIn or Twitter, social platforms are doing more than creating buzz. As social networks grow, their power to shape consumer conversations and amplify word-of-mouth chatter is on the rise. This course covers concepts of social media marketing, current principles and best practices of web marketing and Search Engine Marketing (SEM), a popular and ever-growing web marketing application.

Project Stakeholder Management (2.0 units)

Child Life Assessment, Preparation, and Medical Terminology

Managing stakeholder expectations was revealed as a new knowledge area in the PMBOK Guide, Fifth Edition (2012), but savvy project managers have always understood the need to focus on stakeholder interest. Stakeholders are central to all projects in all categories and levels of complexity. Projects are conceived, initiated, planned, executed, controlled and evaluated by stakeholders for stakeholders. Numerous project performance surveys consistently attribute project success or project failure primarily to stakeholder influences. This course aims to spread awareness of the importance of stakeholders on projects and provide practical guidance on how best to manage and engage them in a professional and ethical manner, which helps the project achieve its goals and objectives more effectively and efficiently, reduces risk caused by ignoring the concerns and power of project stakeholders, and seeks to attain a win-win situation for all stakeholders.
