BBA203: Product and Pricing Decisions

This unit is designed to give an in-depth understanding of the job of the "typical" product manager in marketing consumer and business to business goods/services. While the specific duties of a product manager vary considerably across industries and companies, the course focuses on the four major activities common to the position: (1) analysis of market information, (2) developing product strategy, (3) programming the strategy, and (4) implementation. The course attempts to simulate the product manager's job through the development of a marketing plan for a particular product or service through a computer simulation. In addition, a range of cases will be analysed. These cases will allow students to develop their problem solving skills as well as communication skills: both oral and written.
