Marketing

True marketers don’t simply create ads or sell products; they know how to maximize the flow of goods and services from producers to consumers. You’ll also need to excel at digital marketing, business analytics, data management, social media marketing, and online marketing.

Our marketing major will teach you all this and more through classes that develop you into a well-rounded marketing professional. You’ll be the brains, then the boss.

Declare a second major and combine the marketing major with business, digital communications, international business, psychology, or another area of interest. Our full-time faculty will advise you every step of the way and count your success as their success.

Need-based departmental scholarships are available.
