Background

The School of Marketing, Advertising and Public Relations, in conjunction with Springfield Land Corporation, is seeking to award a full time Master of Business (Research) scholarship to an outstanding candidate in the area of Branding.

The successful applicant will be sponsored by Springfield Land Corporation to undertake research into an area of benefit to the organisation.

The Springfield Land Corporation was established in 1991 and is the master developer of 2,860 hectares (7,067 acres) of Greater Springfield. With partnerships with Australia's most respected corporations including Mirvac, Suncorp, Delfin Lend Lease, Telstra and NEC, Springfield Land Corporation is guided by values of passion, creativity, sustainability, trust and strategic focus.

We envisage that the research will incorporate an analysis of:

  • key stakeholders’ perceptions of the Springfield Land Corporation’s brand
  • how these brand perceptions influence the decision making of the stakeholder
  • how Greater Springfield can adapt its marketing to promote the project as an ideal business address.
