Course objectives

The course Communication Analytics and Measuring Success on Social Networks aims to introduce students to the elements and forms of communication analytics and measuring success that today determine success on social networks and that arise from the information technology revolution that began at the end of the last century. Content that is produced and consumed on the Internet is subject to an exact representation of success, i.e. it determines the concretely visible views of its users or consumers. Communication analytics can be traced from the emergence of print through electronic media to the present day, when analytics as a measurement process is also determined as an indicator and guider of the success of individual networks. Since this segment of communication analysis is becoming increasingly important at all communication levels, the goal is to introduce students to the way digital content analysis and measurement works, i.e. the possibilities of measuring and evaluating communication. As part of this course, students will apply theoretical knowledge through project work on a selected website. Analytics and measuring success will be presented to students through case studies, working materials, discussions in lectures and presentations, in addition to a theoretical overview.

LIFE ON VERN'

Studying at VERN' University is much more than just dry learning of theory. Students further develop theoretical knowledge from lectures through project assignments in collaboration with successful companies, thus developing skills for the business world and building relationships. In addition, they have the opportunity to engage in a variety of extracurricular activities - from playing sports through the VERN' Sport program and absorbing cultural content through the VERN' Culture program, to getting involved in student initiatives, organizing various events, attending seminars and workshops, and visiting the most important conferences and business-educational events.
