Marketing strategy & figures

Measuring efficiency is an integral part of marketing. In order to properly evaluate marketing activities and make timely adjustments if necessary, it is important to be able to measure results. Management reports and market research provide insights into the results of our marketing activities. The information retrieved from these sources is incorporated in the marketing strategy for the UT and the different target groups and educational programmes.

Rankings provide an insight into the quality of universities around the world and play an important role in the process international students go through when choosing an educational programme. While it is difficult to influence the position a university holds in a ranking, rankings are still an important factor in international student recruitment.

Target countries 

As far as recruitment is concerned, it is important to note that BSc recruitment will mainly take place in Europe. The recruitment of MSc students will take place both within and outside of Europe, BSc recruitment benefitting from the marketing efforts made for MSc recruitment.
