Background Details

You will be introduced to the core concepts of the module through a lecture series delivered by staff - you are encouraged to think of this module as ‘cross-functional’; in nature and therefore appreciate the implications of digital channels for different parts of the business.

Where possible, external speakers will be integrated into the lecture program to give practical perspective of how the emergence of digital channels have fundamentally changed how they operate.

As part of this process you will be encouraged to consider both theoretical approaches to digital business but also the practicalities of how businesses operate in the digital domain. You will also engage in a range of smaller classes which will vary between seminars and workshop based sessions.

Given the technological nature of the module, there will be some subjects that are best approached via hands-on usage of relevant software applications (e.g. the use of Google Analytics to analyse the behaviour of visitors to a company website).

Formative assessment: As part of the seminar and workshop program, you will regularly receive feedback on your progress. This will be achieved through delivery of presentations and engagement in seminar activities.

Module Aims

Throughout this module you will be introduced to the opportunities and challenges posed by

doing business in an increasingly digital domain. This module is designed to give you an

understanding of how using online channels impacts upon different parts of the organization,

and will in particular focus upon 3 core areas of business:

Digital Business Strategy: You will develop an understanding of the cost structures

associated with using digital channels, different business models (including omni and

multiple channel business strategies), distance issues around serving global markets and

implications in terms of taxation and service delivery.

Marketing: In this part of the module you will consider changing consumer media

consumption and behavior; social media and m-commerce; customer relationship building in

an online context, digital brand communities and performance metrics.

Supply Chain Management and Information Systems: You will also develop an

appreciation of the role of supply chains in serving global markets, addressing issues such

as the application of various systems to facilitate digital transactions (e.g. ERP, CRM) and

issues related to web performance (e.g. web design and analytics).
