Trefnydd: Prof Louise Hassan

This module introduces you to research in action. Students will be provided with a research brief (by an academic member of staff) and must work either individually or in a team to design and collect data to answer the aim and objectives given in the research brief. The module will allow students to put into practice skills and insight that they have gain in the taught element of the programme to help solve a “real world” marketing problem. Students will be required to conduct both secondary and primary research across a minimum of two countries. On completion of the module students will have gained practical experience in undertaking research, bridged the theory- practice gap and gained skills in effective written communication.

Students can work individually or in teams on a brief provided by a member of staff. Students will be given a deadline to complete the team element of the project (this element involves the design and collection of primary data if applicable). The research will be written up individually in the form of a marketing report. There is no set syllabus as the tasks required will depend on the brief given. Students will have the opportunity to select a brief to work on from those available. No more than 4 students can work on the same brief.
