Economics and marketing for sustainability
The main aim of the course is to bring to a focus the enhancement and revitalization of regional areas contributing to promoting change in the policy maker's vision strategy. That may be achieved training human capital capable of mastering the new or renewed skills needed in the public sector to foster sustainable welfare services and in the private sector to join the transition towards the circular economy of processes and products.
Graduates will have access to careers within: public institutions, local, national and supranational bodies; international, national and local economics investigation bodies; companies providing public utility services; local development agencies, non-profit organizations, intermediate institutions (Chambers of Commerce, local foundations, local authorities, local trade associations); economic and economic-environmental consultancy firms; agri-food, manufacturing and service businesses; companies operating in the circular economy; consulting firms in the various management areas (administrative/financial/operations /marketing); real business service centers.
An adequate level of prior knowledge is required, which will be tested by means of TOLC (CISIA online test). This is not a limited access course, consequently, any student scoring below the minimum threshold established by the programme can still enrol but additional educational activities will be guaranteed to compensate for any gaps (so-called additional educational obligations - OFA). These activities must be completed within the first year of the course. For more information about the various types of TOLC and minimum thresholds please consult the page TOLC Types and Minimum Thresholds.
