Marketing Overview
Marketing is a unique combination of art and science, creativity and rigor, and innovation and fundamentals. Marketing students obtain the full range of knowledge and skills needed to develop cutting edge marketing strategy and tactics. The program enables students to develop analytical and practical insights for leveraging business growth opportunities across industries and within populations. Special emphasis is placed on ethical marketing practice and adaptation to new technologies; changing consumer preferences; environmental sustainability; and a rapidly expanding global economy.
Chatham University is the perfect combination of a small school’s nurturing environment with a large school’s professional opportunities. Students engage with faculty in the classroom to hone their knowledge and mastery of basic marketing concepts and then apply these skills in a multitude of settings in the real world. The faculty are so proud of all that our students accomplish during their time with us, as these experiences provide the solid footing needed to achieve their ambitions long term.
