The marketing research methods module seeks to develop the students'
independent research abilities. The lectures will provide the theoretical foundation
for the module, i.e. the purpose, nature and techniques of marketing research. The
seminar will provide the vehicle for the application of the theory. A recommended
efficient student learning plan is as follows: Prepare the lecture material before
classes; Attend each lecture and ask questions in classes; Finish any assignment on
time; Search course-related sources on the Net.
