  • Creating Value in the Entrepreneurial University: Marketization and Merchandising Strategies
    administrative sciences Article Creating Value in the Entrepreneurial University: Marketization and Merchandising Strategies Chiara Fantauzzi *, Rocco Frondizi , Nathalie Colasanti and Gloria Fiorani Department of Management and Law, University of Rome Tor Vergata, 00133 Roma, Italy; [email protected] (R.F.); [email protected] (N.C.); gloria.fi[email protected] (G.F.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 9 August 2019; Accepted: 14 October 2019; Published: 18 October 2019 Abstract: Higher education institutions are called to expand their role and responsibilities, by enhancing their entrepreneurial mindset and redefining relationships with stakeholders. In order to cope with these new challenges, they have started to operate in a strategic manner, by performing marketing and merchandising activities. Indeed, in a sector characterized by the presence of competitive funding models, several forms of accountability, and performance indicators, universities have become open systems and have started to operate like enterprises, considering students as customers. Given this premise, the aim of the paper is to individuate marketing and merchandising strategies in higher education and to evaluate their effectiveness in order to foster stakeholders engagement. This is in line with the entrepreneurial university model that represents the starting point of the theoretical study, then a literature review of “marketization” in higher education institutions is presented, showing how this field is not yet completely investigated. Data refer to the Italian context and are analyzed through a qualitative method. Findings suggest that most Italian universities perform merchandising strategies, but currently there is not sufficient information to evaluate their effectiveness in higher education, it was only possible to make hypotheses.

  • Innovation As a Source of Organic Growth in the Digital Age
    Address for the Academic Year Opening Ceremony 2017-2018 INNOVATION AS A SOURCE OF ORGANIC GROWTH IN THE DIGITAL AGE Gianmario Verona Rector 123117_210x297#[email protected] 4 20/11/17 11:50 1463 copertina ita_Layout 1 22/11/17 13:59 Pagina 2 relazione.eng_aa.2017_2018_relazione.eng_aa.2017_2018.qxd 23/11/17 13:20 Pagina 1 1. INTRODUCTION Economic history and history in general teaches us that the dawning of each century rep- resents a moment of profound social, political, economic and technological change. The 21st century is proving that it fits in perfectly with this pattern. It would be impossible today to cover the complexity of the change we are experiencing now. With my speech I will therefore focus on a distinctive trait of this age, or the extraor- dinary potential for innovation that has become available to humanity1 in recent years. This potential has fundamental implications for the economy and society. More specifically, it directly impacts higher education and the social sciences, areas that Bocconi has been con- tributing to actively since its foundation in 1902. Joseph Schumpeter, the first economist to systematically study the topic of innovation, observed how economic growth was closely connected to the quality and intensity of inno- vation sustained within the sectors located in a nation2. In his studies, Schumpeter gained an understanding of how innovation on a sector level depended on the entrepreneurial efforts stimulated by factors both outside of the industry and factors produced internally, thanks to the investment made in research activities – which today are commonly called R&D3.

  • Bocconi University Italy
    2014-2015 University Attended – Bocconi University, Italy Feedback 1 INDUCTION/ORIENTATION PROGRAMME Orientation meeting for a couple of hours which was very informative, we received a USB with further information. There was also a desk open for international students to come and ask questions which was open all day for the first 2 weeks. In general the induction was very helpful. ACADEMIC EXPERIENCE Quality of teaching was very good most classes were interactive and engaged the class well. Different from Manchester in that there were no seminars: all classes were lectures between 20-60 people which I preferred. Attending and non-attending option: I would suggest any students to do attending as it makes it much easier. E- learning platform was easy to use and had most of the materials needed. Most courses were well run and interesting. Sometimes information was a bit vague on exams for example. you weren't always given sample questions or told how long the exam was. Also there was no exact date on exam results you just received them at random which gave you little time to prepare if you needed to repeat it. MBS INTERNATIONAL ADMINISTRATION SUPPORT TEAM Always responded quickly to any queries I had and dealt with any issues fairly quickly. I was given all the information I needed for my year abroad. MBS SECOND YEAR MEETINGS Helpful in explaining the exchange and allocation of places process. All parts of the application process were clearly defined making it easier. There was sufficient information on each host university and destination. HOST INTERNATIONAL OFFICE They were generally very helpful but didn’t really provide any support with housing which proved very difficult to find at a reasonable price.
