Marketing activities and skills need to change in step with the deep and often contradictory changes underway in our environment, including digital technology and the development of a participatory culture turning consumers into ethical consumers, a sense of belonging to several communities through affinity or emotional ties, the emergence of a trend towards a more responsible form of marketing and new forms of competition based on the creation of open ecosystems involving “business partners”.
It was with these changes in mind that we designed the MSc Marketing & Brand Management, working with a team of teacher-researchers and companies who are part of the KEDGE Business School ecosystem. The professors belong to one of Europe’s best-known Research Centres, the KEDGE BS “Marketing Centre of Excellence”.
Working with businesses, they take our current state of knowledge forward in the marketing field, and involve students in their research. Companies are involved in the joint-creation of the programme at several levels: some are involved in managing the programme via the Development Committee, while others support students throughout their optional study routes thanks to “guiding light” partnerships.
They all share the same aim: to help future graduates to be at the very pinnacle of their ability and to succeed in their future careers.
