Marketing students discussing presentation

Marketing

Marketing lets you explore both the creative and logistical side of business. You learn to build and maintain a brand that speaks to your target audience. Through research, imagination and artistic awareness you’ll connect with clients.

Quote from Jared McGinley

The way I like to think about marketing, it's where art and design meet analytics and sales, and it's all about relationship building and satisfying people's needs.
Jared McGinley Department Chair, Marketing & Entrepreneurship
