Marketing

The mission of the marketing program is to develop and deliver quality marketing programs and to foster an educational culture that helps students to excel at developing, implementing and controlling strategies and tactics. These fall into the areas of markets, products and services, distribution, promotion and pricing. Students should thus be capable of achieving their goals and meeting the needs and wants of employers, customers, and society.
