Why an MBA in Marketing?

The MBA Marketing Program strives to develop leaders who are able to execute successful marketing strategies while considering the societal implications of such strategies. The marketing concentration is a perfect fit for those looking to hone flexible skills in an ever-changing digital marketing landscape. The program immerses students in a cutting-edge academic environment that partners theory with practice. Through innovative curricula and a hands-on Capstone digital marketing project, students are well prepared for the constantly evolving world of marketing. Students benefit from coursework in mobile applications, marketing management, non-profit marketing and judgment/decision making. Core learning outcomes center on analytical effectiveness, ethical awareness and reflection, development of a global perspective, and effective communication, in addition to the practical experience gained during their Capstone.
