Marketing Minor

The Marketing Minor provides an opportunity for non-business majors at Newark to obtain a broad perspective of the Marketing field and explore specialty areas such as advertising, brand management, international marketing and new product planning. The format of the marketing minor closely follows that of other minors at Newark (Accounting, Business Administration, Business of Fashion and Entrepreneurship, and Real Estate). The Marketing minor does not add any new courses. It just combines existing courses into an 18-credit minor for non-RBS students.

Goals of the Minor

• To acquire an understanding of the theories, concepts and practices in the marketing field.
• To apply this new understanding and knowledge of marketing in a business setting.

Advantages

A Minor in Marketing provides students from non-business programs with an edge over their respective peers in the marketplace.
