Theory of Marketing
Presentation
The discipline of marketing theory allows students develop a theoretical support to the different marketing disciplines that will be taught during the degree. Provides analysis tools that give an overview of business activities but with a clear orientation to the marketing perspective. On the other hand, it focuses on the knowledge of the consumer to perceive what moves him in his buying processes. This allows, in the future, to develop marketing activities that meet your needs and desires. Finally, this discipline, being eminently theoretical, presents theories of different authors. Allows students to develop a critical / analytical capacity and make them able to question different approaches.
