Choose from two specializations: Digital Marketing—great for students passionate about digital advertising, social media and creative content, or Sales Management—made for students seeking to develop sales strategies and utilize integrated marketing campaigns.
Our Marketing degrees are available with Flex Choice®, which allows you to combine traditional online coursework, self-directed assessments and competency-based education—the best of all worlds, so you can receive credit by demonstrating what you know and can do.
