    • You have a question? Something you don´t understand? This forum allows you to ask questions about lecture material or test questions. Perhaps your fellow students can help and I will answer, comment or correct misunderstanding when needed.

      Use the forum as well for general questions, problems with Moodle or alike. Do not write emails individually on issues that are relevant to all. This way everyone has the same information.

    • The link takes you to the website of Fahy/Jobber: Foundations of Marketing, which is being used for the Marketing Introduction in the 3rd semester. Here you´ll find  a glossary of some basic Marketing Terms, which the publisher offers for free. You may also find it useful to take a look at the case study guidelines on the same page.

    • This is an old exam and is therefore still 60 points / 60 minutes. The exam from WS24/25 will be worth 45 points / 45 minutes and will only contain 2 short answer/case questions, of which you will have to choose 1 as described in the general information section. 

      I recommend doing the mock exam under realistic conditions, that is: take 60 minutes of time and put away script, book or alike. This exam covers the material until Service Marketing, so you can do it right now. The final exam includes Topics 1-11.

    • Here you can check the correct answers to the multiple choice questions for the mock exam.

      Hints to answer the open questions are given below.
