Objectives
Nowadays, brands must consider the global context and the need to adapt their messages and media markets to specific cultural and social contexts, transcending geographical boundaries.
During this course, students work with the most important management tools and strategies used in the fields of advertising and public relations, taking into account the global context, the brand and its public.
Learning outcomes
Under review. Pending publication
Content
- International communication concepts and trends : the global communication plans.
- How to research and analyse international environments, organisations and their publics.
- Typologies of international communication strategies: selection of insights, creation of international messages, creative concepts and claims.
- Typologies of international communication tactics: timing, budget and evaluation of the communication plan.
Evaluation
To pass the course, all the evaluated activities must be submitted. The breakdown of the final mark is as follows:
Final Grade:
- 60%: Group project (3 presentations: 20% each)
- 40%: Portfolio (3 group projects: 20%, 10%, 10%)
Attendance is required for continuous evaluation.
More information on each of the activities is detailed on the Virtual Campus.
Resit information: students can only resit the portfolio projects if the final mark is lower than 50%.
In the case of a new medical emergency involving confinement, activities and percentages of assessment will not be altered. If projects cannot be done in person, they will become virtual.
Methodology
The working methodology is divided between theoretical and practical sessions, where theoretical aspects are discussed emphasising the various aspects of advertising and PR campaign management. Under the teacher's guidance, work groups develop the various stages of the projects, create exercises and examples to illustrate their topics. Different methodologies are combined, such as videos, simulations, games, role-plays, presentations, conceptual mapping, visuals and video production, reading and understanding of texts and knowledge assessment tests.
Students participate in different types of sessions: Lectures with the whole class, sub-sessions in small groups with the teacher, and group tutoring sessions.
Ways of grouping students: In order to carry out the various mandatory activities, small groups of intercultural exchange will be created, encouraging collaborative work between local and international students.
In the case of a medical emergency situation that implies new confinement, the subject will be transferred to a virtual context and virtual methodologies will be used. Moreover, in such a case, students will adapt their video productions to be developed with fewer resources (props, lighting, camera equipment, casting etc.…).
