More information about the Marketing Discipline

The essence of marketing is to understand customers' needs and develop a plan that fulfils those needs. Therefore, marketing generates the strategy that underlies sales techniques, business communication and business development. Marketing analysis includes finding out what groups of potential customers (or markets) exist, what groups of customers you prefer to serve (target markets), what their needs are, what products or services you might develop to meet their needs, how the customers might prefer to use the products and services, what your competitors are doing, what pricing you should use and how you should distribute products and services to your target markets.

Marketing degree programs combine the mathematical and statistical courses with the organizational focus of a business major, along with the human behavioral studies of the liberal arts. Graduates often look for entry or advancement opportunities in advertising agencies, PR firms, corporate marketing, marketing research, brand management sales and retailing departments, and customer relationship management. Alternatively, with a degree in marketing you may choose to pursue career opportunities in a non-profit organization.
