FEATUREDCOURSES
Brand Management and Strategy
MKTG2508
Products are the lifeblood of an
organisation, and thus it is important for
managers to understand the role of the
product and brand management in gaining
and maintaining customer loyalty. This
course is designed to develop knowledge,
skills and perspectives to support the
application of managing products and
developing brand strategies in the marketing
area.
Destination and Experience
Marketing

to travel, leisure and tourism organisations.
Marketing theories, models, methods and

governance, positioning and branding are
examined, as is destination recovery after a
crisis.
Introduction to Human Resource
Management
MGTS2604
Human Resource Management (HRM)
is about the deployment of people in
organisations: it is about the policies,
functions and practices that are designed
to attract, motivate and retain employees
for organisational success. This course
will introduce you to the feld of HRM, to
the theories and approaches, concepts
and techniques that are employed in best
practice organisations. Understanding the
signifcance, breadth and dynamic nature of
the feld is necessary for sound professional
HRM practice by Human Resource
professionals and by general managers.
Behavioural and Evolutionary
Economics
ECON2060
The course gives a guided exploration
of the new developments and insights in
the feld of behavioural economics, mainly
motivated by the evolutionary changes in
the major factors of production (labour,
capital, technology and institutions). The
course will contain material from outside
traditional economics, including insights
from neuroscience, cognitive psychology,
laboratory experiments and historical
studies. The diverse material in the
course, including a considerable degree
of mathematical formalisation, will place
relatively high demands on students.
Health Economics
ECON2460
This course explores the descriptive and
theoretical aspects of health and medical
services; demand and supply for health
insurance, hospitals and related services;
equity versus effciency in services;
health fnancing and health systems; and
evaluation techniques.

“The course that I am enjoying most
is
ECON2500 China: Emergence,
Implications and Challenges
. As
an economics student I am greatly
intrigued by what is going on in
China, as a major player in the global
economy. It is really pleasing that UQ
offers such a course, because I would
never have expected that coming to
Australia would have opened up that
possibility. It has been well worth it.”
