The Marketing major offers a broad understanding and use of marketing skills to optimizing opportunities in target markets.

 

The marketing major prepares students to identify consumers’ and firms’ needs so that students can provide enhanced customer service and strengthen customer relationships. The marketing curriculum of market research, consumer analysis, product development, pricing, sales, and advertising prepares students to understand opportunities and challenges in the domestic and global markets.

 

At the conclusion of the program, students will be able to analyze research data to identify target markets and to determine the impact of social, situational an individual influences on consumers' decisions. Students will also be able to evaluate marketing plans that promote a brand and provide a cohesive message to a customer.
