Seminars & Conferences

Seminars & Conferences

Throughout the year the Department of Marketing & Management holds specialized seminars for students, staff, alumni and members of the community. Each semester academics and students organise special guest speakers to come and present to the peer group with industry knowledge and insight into our profession. The department is also pleased to have had their very own academics present seminars in the field of their ongoing research.
