Examining Cases: Non-ideal Medical Ethics

This end-of-semester examination involves providing students with a court ruling on a medical case that most will not have come across until that point. Students are expected to read the case under exam conditions, and bring their learning over the course of the semester to bear on their interpretation of the salient medical and legal points raised, determining their ethical implications. This is then tested over a number of multiple choice questions delivered via Examsoft.

Brand Strategy Audit

Student teams will practice with and apply our brand strategy model and methods to a real world brand of their choosing. The project involves qualitative and quantitative consumer research, so that students learn brand analysis not based on the students' own opinions of the brand but on the evidence of consumer perceptions of the brand. Students analyse the current brand strategy and recommend a complete brand strategy plan. This project will help students learn the theory, will help students understand how it is applied, and will help students acquire the skill of how to do a brand audit.
