Offered by the Marketing Department

Marketing Major Description

The Marketing major is designed for students seeking an in-depth knowledge of the concepts, tools, and practice of modern marketing but who do not necessarily plan to follow a career path structured around marketing responsibilities. Students anticipating careers in areas such as management consulting, general management, high technology companies, and investment banking, may find this option attractive.

To earn the Marketing major, students are required to complete four courses. After completing Marketing Management (430), students must complete Market Research (450) and two other marketing electives. Electives can be chosen based on particular student interest from a broad range of marketing department electives.
