1. INTRODUCTION ABOUT THE COURSE
Change is occurring at an accelerating rate; today is not like yesterday, and tomorrow will be different
from today. Continuing today’s strategy is risky; so is turning to a new strategy.
Therefore, tomorrow’s successful companies will have to heed three certainties:
➤ Global forces will continue to affect everyone’s business and personal life.
➤ Technology will continue to advance and amaze us.
➤ There will be a continuing push toward deregulation of the economic sector.
These three developments—globalization, technological advances, and deregulation—spell endless
opportunities. But what is marketing and what does it have to do with these issues? Marketing deals
with identifying and meeting human and social needs.
Marketing has always been an interesting field of specialization as the demand for graduates in this
field continues to dominate job postings. This course is designed to provide students with an
understanding of the principles of Marketing. There will be a focus on the management of the
marketing activities and how marketing relates to overall organisational functioning, including the
management of exchange processes between business units and consumers and between firms.
It will include topics such as environmental analysis, industry and competitor analysis, objective
setting, marketing strategies, market mix components, and finally implementation and control
mechanisms. Each unit is followed by a case study that helps in providing an understanding of the
concept studied. The case studies are contemporary and help in enhancing the analytical skills of the
students. Course provides a complete understanding of marketing concepts
Marketing is enveloping trend in modern competitive world as it contributes greatly for the
productivity of firms. The essence of marketing concept is that customer and not the product shall be
the centre or the heart of the entire business system. It emphasizes customer-oriented marketing
process. All business operations revolve around customer satisfaction and service. Marketing plans,
policies and programmes are formulated to serve efficiently customer demand.
Marketing management is significant section of management process, which envelops the distribution
of marketing activities. Also Marketing management plays a key role in an organization on multiple
levels, since there are various departments that require its support in order to reach their full potential.
The current millennium has unfolded new business rules, the most significant of them being that past
history or experience in a given product market is no indicator of future success. Today marketing is
not just a concept or business limited to marketing and sales people rather Marketing in today’s era is
an orientation. All the functional areas like Finance, R & D, HR and Operations can effectively plan
and execute their strategy only if they keep the customers in their mind.
Thus as correctly said by Peter Drucker, Marketing is not only much broader than selling, it is not a
specialized activity at all. It encompasses the entire business. It is the whole business seen from the
point of view of the final result, that is, from the customer's point of view. Concern and responsibility
for marketing must therefore permeate all areas of the enterprise.

5.0 COURSE CONDUCT POLICY
Academic Honesty
Academic Dishonesty is defined as an intentional act of deception in which a student seeks to claim credit
for the work or effort of another person or uses unauthorised materials or fabricated information in any
academic work.
Students assume full responsibility for the content and integrity of the academic work they submit. The
guiding principle of academic integrity is that a student’s submitted work, examinations, reports, and
projects must be that student’s own work for individual assignments, and the group’s own work for group
assignments/ projects. Students are guilty of academic dishonesty if they:
Use or obtain unauthorised materials or assistance in any academic work; i.e. cheating.
Falsify or invent any information regarded as cheating by the instructor; i.e. fabrication.
Give unauthorised assistance to other students, i.e. assisting in dishonesty.
Represent the work of others as their own; i.e. plagiarism.
Modify, without instructor approval, an examination paper, record or report for the purpose of
obtaining additional credit; i.e. tampering.
19
The penalty for academic dishonesty is severe. Any student guilty of academic dishonesty may be subject to
receive a failing grade for the assignment, quiz, or class participation exercise as deemed appropriate by the
instructor. All cases regarding use of unfair means in the Mid Term and End Term examination shall be
placed before the Examination Committee for decision and recommending penalties, if any, subject to final
decision taken by the Director. All such cases will be routed through the Controller of Examinations to the
Director’s office (Refer Policies on “Use of Unfair means in Examination).
