JAPN2053 International marketing strategy: Focus on Japan 6 credits

Practical business applications and scenario analyses of Japanese, Chinese and Korean business models are integrated into the lectures and tutorials throughout the course.

This exercise is designed to enable students to develop practical presentation skills, as well as to enhance their interpersonal, leadership, negotiation and organisational capabilities.
