Undergraduate Program

Marketing Major

Today, marketing is fast-paced due to the rapid growth of digital technologies, data analytics and fewer geographic boundaries than ever before. A successful marketing career requires strategic thinking and sound analytical capabilities — both quantitative and qualitative — as well as strong interpersonal and communications skills to understand and react to the needs of the customer. Our program is designed so you’ll encounter all the basic challenges in the industry — how a company decides what to sell, which customers and markets to target and how to build and manage relationships for sustained profitability.
