Marketing
A marketing major provides the skills to generate products and services for which there is a defined customer need and to establish a competitive advantage by effective positioning in the market with reference to product, promotion, pricing and distribution strategies. The marketing major is geared towards problem-solving and decision-making. It provides the sound analytical and communication skills, as well as creative thinking, which are essential to successful marketing.
In addition to the more established commercial marketing, there is an opportunity to pursue an interest in specialist marketing applications including social marketing and not-for-profit marketing. Students are encouraged to become involved in on-campus groups such as the Marketing Society and gain knowledge of professional practice and establish valuable industry contacts as a student member of the Australian Marketing Institute.
