Business Administration - Marketing

Department of Finance & Marketing, College of Business and Economics

The Business Administration program has been designed to prepare students for leadership roles in business and the community. One program objective is to provide students with the perceptual and analytical skills necessary in making decisions and evaluating policy in business; another is to develop student understanding of the social, economic and regulatory environment of business. The program is designed for students with a variety of career goals, including opportunities with financial institutions, manufacturing and retail firms, service industries and the public sector.

Marketing includes a variety of activities relating to product and service planning, pricing, communication and distribution. Many interesting career opportunities await marketing graduates, including product and brand management, advertising, public relations, sales and sales management, marketing research, distribution/traffic management and retail management and merchandising. A strong background in behavioral sciences or computer applications will complement marketing studies.
