Marketing at Ozarks

Major

The curriculum of the marketing major is designed to provide a basic framework within which the marketing decision-making process occurs. In addition to studying a broad base of business topics, the student is exposed to a specialized curriculum emphasizing the consumer, marketing research, communication, buying and selling practices, the marketing mix, and ethics.

The marketing major prepares the student for graduate school or for employment in sales, marketing research, promotion, and other marketing related careers.

Aside from courses listed in the business core, a course may not be used to satisfy the requirements of two different majors within the Business Enterprise program. Overlapping courses found in the concentration areas must be substituted with other courses as approved by the student’s advisor and the division chair. Internship/practicum credit does not count toward satisfying major/minor requirements.
