B.B.A. Marketing, Emphasis in Professional Sales

The Marketing, Emphasis in Professional Sales, major seeks to deliver this valuable skill to students and solve the skills gap that currently exists in our economy by providing students with relevant, project-based learning thus allowing them to develop one of the most sought-after skills in both Fortune 500 companies and fast-growing technology firms. This degree features a heavy focus on Relationship-Driven Selling, which is vital to ensuring long-term customer commitments in B2B sales. Additionally, all of the classes place an emphasis on hands-on learning, where students are not just learning theory, but instead putting those theories to practice in live sales environments with their professors and peers. The goal is to provide students with valuable on-the-job experience that will prepare them for the positions they ultimately end up filling once they graduate.
