Marketing Analytics and Metrics (N1571)

15 credits, Level 5

Autumn teaching

It is the age of big data. Firms are collecting increasing amounts of data on the behaviour and preferences of their customers. Marketers need to be able to analyse this data for insight and to make effective decisions.

In this module, you are introduced to some principal methods for analysing data, both qualitative and quantitative, related to various aspects of marketing.

The aim is to improve the quality of marketing decisions, by grounding those decisions in metrics rather than the gut feelings or preferences of decision makers.

The goal of the module is for you to become familiar with the fundamental analytical methods for answering marketing research questions.

Your studies in this module involve developing research questions, analyzing data and drawing inferences, with a view to making better marketing decisions.

This module introduces you to several key descriptive and analytical methods and provides a range of tools necessary to analyse data within the context of marketing-related questions.

However, there may be changes to these modules in response to feedback, staff availability, student demand or updates to our curriculum.

We’ll make sure to let you know of any material changes to modules at the earliest opportunity.
