Marketing

Marketing is about generating products and services to meet a defined customer need. It’s also about establishing a competitive advantage by effective positioning in the market with reference to product, promotion, pricing and distribution strategies. In addition to commercial marketing, the industry has diversified into specialist marketing applications including social marketing and not-for-profit marketing.

You will be immersed in marketing, from understanding consumer behaviour and measuring the effectiveness of communication channels to the product positioning and the effectiveness of market research. You’ll learn about how to use creative advertising techniques, including graphic design software, to develop creative and effective marketing communications. You will also see how marketing can influence positive change in social behaviour.

A Marketing minor can be completed at the Shoalhaven Campus and at UOW's Education Centres in Batemans Bay, Bega, Loftus and Moss Vale. Applicants should contact the individual Education Centres for information regarding subject availability.
