Careers in Marketing and Multinational Business

“What can I do with a degree in marketing?” is a question commonly asked by students.  In truth, a better question is “What can’t I do with a degree in marketing?”  Many people naturally associate marketing with a career in sales.  However, a career in marketing can involve more than selling (although sales is one of the most exciting and lucrative marketing careers available!).

Here are some resources to explore as you consider a career in marketing.  If you have any questions about marketing as a career, field of study, or as a way of life, please contact one of our advisors.
