Minor Entrepreneurship and Culture

Profile of the programme

This minor is designed to expand your theoretical and practical knowledge of online marketing.
 
The programme will start with a web store simulation (Magento), during which you will learn to use Google Analytics and Adwords. You will then work in teams to apply this knowledge in practice, developing an online marketing strategy for a regional SME. You will implement the campaigns developed by your group and make adjustments where necessary. The participating businesses will invest in a marketing budget, which must be used as effectively as possible.
 
How can you attract more customers to the website? How can you increase conversion rates? Most importantly: how do you build up a reliable image as an online consultant, ensuring that the client heeds your advice?
 
You will develop your online marketing skills as you work for real clients under the supervision of experienced coaches.
 
You will acquire theoretical knowledge on Google Analytics, SEA, SEO, display advertising, social marketing, remarketing and conversion optimisation in preparation for obtaining your Google Analytics and Fundamentals certificates.
