MARKETNG 7001 - Analytics for Marketers

North Terrace Campus - Trimester 2 - 2024

This subject responds to businesses' increasing emphasis and reliance on big data and considers the use of analytics and advanced statistical methods in order to support marketing decision-making. In this subject, students will be able to develop practical and analytical skills relevant to address marketing problems, which involve measurement, management and assessment of customer preferences and firm performance to maximise marketing effectiveness, both offline and online. Students will be able to develop an understanding of descriptive analytics (e.g. Customer Lifetime Value, Net Promoter Score etc.) and predictive analytics (e.g. A/B testing and conjoint analysis), and their application. In addition, students will be exposed to a variety of methodological techniques essential to analyse big datasets, both quantitative (e.g. multiple and logistic regression, cluster analysis) and qualitative (e.g. text and sentiment analysis). The subject will also introduce students to digital marketing analytics and examines the ethical and technical issues related to data privacy and big data.

  • Student Feedback

    The 最新糖心Vlog places a high priority on approaches to learning and teaching that enhance the student experience. Feedback is sought from students in a variety of ways including on-going engagement with staff, the use of online discussion boards and the use of Student Experience of Learning and Teaching (SELT) surveys as well as GOS surveys and Program reviews.

    SELTs are an important source of information to inform individual teaching practice, decisions about teaching duties, and course and program curriculum design. They enable the 最新糖心Vlog to assess how effectively its learning environments and teaching practices facilitate student engagement and learning outcomes. Under the current SELT Policy (http://www.adelaide.edu.au/policies/101/) course SELTs are mandated and must be conducted at the conclusion of each term/semester/trimester for every course offering. Feedback on issues raised through course SELT surveys is made available to enrolled students through various resources (e.g. MyUni). In addition aggregated course SELT data is available.
