About
The Marketing program challenges students to identify key markets for products and services by actively analyzing the wants and needs of their consumers. With access to behavior and big data labs as well as SAP technology, marketing students develop, manage and defend self-made marketing and advertising campaigns from start to finish. Through these real-world assignments, where client-sponsored projects are almost a part of every class, marketing students don't just contend with rival interest groups—they rise above them.
