Marketing is everywhere: on your phone, in your inbox, and behind nearly every product launch or viral moment. 

But good marketing goes beyond catchy slogans or clever ads. It’s built on data driven strategies to guide each stage of a brand’s journey. 

If you're drawn to that mix of art and science, a marketing degree can help you turn it into a career. At the �鶹ҹ��, the online B.S.B.A. in Marketing prepares you to grow brands and drive results at every stage of your career.

What Do You Learn in a Marketing Degree Program? 

�鶹ҹ��’s online marketing degree program combines business basics with a deep dive into the many facets of the field. 

“We bring in ideas from psychology, statistics, finance, management. Even English comes into marketing,” says Dr. Michael Levin, Department Head and Associate Professor of the Department of Marketing. “The goal is to bring that all together to answer the question: ‘Why does one firm succeed while others don’t?’” 

Students build base knowledge in business areas like finance, management, and business law, while diving deeper into topics like: 

• Marketing theories: Study concepts like the marketing mix to reach diverse audiences.
• Consumer behavior and market research: Learn how to segment audiences, analyze trends, and translate data into strategy.
• Tech and digital tools: Build fluency in the platforms that power content strategy, campaign management, and analytics.
• Strategic thinking: Explore branding and the connection between marketing strategy and day-to-day tactics.  

For Daniel Richard, graduate of the marketing program, courses like MKTG 355: Consumer Behavior and MKTG 375: Marketing Research stood out for their real-world relevance. 

“All the classes I took really set up for success to move through the early stages of my career,” he says. 

Each course is designed to help you think critically while learning how brands build trust and deliver value.

“At its heart, every firm is a marketing firm. To create and keep a customer, it has to do a lot of marketing. This degree will take you far into the world. Every firm exists to compete in the marketplace, and marketing is central to that process.”
