Research

The Department of Marketing makes a significant contribution to the generation and dissemination of marketing-related knowledge. The research projects pursue the maxim of building a bridge between academic stringency and practical relevance. The practice dialogue is important for us. Current and practice-relevant marketing phenomena are investigated using empirical, also application-oriented, research methods. The findings and results are documented in numerous international journals.
