Course objectives
Main objectives focus on comprehending the specifics of public sector marketing, or non-profit sector marketing. Besides an analysis of the individual steps of marketing that are recommended for work in the public or non-profit sector, attention is paid to state-of-the-art "marketing management" as it is viewed by the Fribourg school of management for non-profit organizations, subject of study at our partner university in Switzerland. Students will also learn a brief description of theory and practice of communication, PR, advertising, public affairs, fund-raising (i.e. raising funds for non-profit organizations) and the new public management dealing with current trends of efficient public sector management.
Learning outcomes
Upon successful completion of this course the student should be able to identify, define and describe basic elements, characteristics and specifics and distinguish between different approaches and directions of marketing in the public sector (public administration, NGO), work with and use different marketing tools and methods and apply them to the practice of public, nonprofit organizations, through the implementation of team projects that students process during the semester on the basis of assignment and in cooperation with real organizations (public administration, NGOs). By combining the theory and practice students will learn within this course critical and analytical thinking, synthesis of the acquired knowledge and findings, also preparation and setting of relevant marketing strategy procedures for different types of non-profit organizations. Students will learn through the implementation of the project how to analyze and build a communication, media, fundraising, sponsorship plans of the organization and, in conjunction with interpretation and theory, will understand the internal interconnection of all these areas, which is finally verified by the test.
