Bachelor of Science in Marketing

Marketing touches all aspects of modern living — whether it’s internal marketing in organizations or selling to sophisticated clients. The distinguishing feature of this degree is its emphasis on quantitative analysis. The demand is growing for marketing professionals who are proficient in using analytical tools and programs to analyze data to make better marketing decisions.

Careers in Marketing

The Jindal School’s fully staffed Career Management Center (CMC), working in tandem with the University’s Career Center, helps students prepare for and seek internships, as well as post-graduation employment.
