Course Objectives
The course has two goals. First, students develop a deep understanding of consumer behavior. We cover the typical consumer decision process, as well as specialized topics such as conceptual, experiential, cultural, and luxury consumption. Students are exposed to state-of-the-art academic research on topics such as consumer memory, communication, persuasion, and happiness. Second, students learn to apply the study of consumer behavior to cultural and creative industry contexts.
