About the Marketing Program

Drive in the Fast Lane with a Career in Marketing

Marketing is one of the fastest growing, most in-demand careers, with an increasing number of jobs available across marketing management, sales management, creative direction, social media management, advertising and promotions, market research, and public relations. The common thread? Technology. Social media, artificial intelligence, augmented reality, and other technologies have transformed the marketing landscape, and show no signs of slowing.

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, marketing management positions offer higher-than-average median annual income prospects compared to other business careers. Our marketing programs will train you to analyze business issues, problem solve, and develop effective marketing strategies to achieve business goals. Whether you decide to approach an agency or work in-house for an organization, marketing roles require constant innovation, creativity, a deep knowledge of tools and strategies, and the ability to manage multiple projects at once.

With on-campus and fully online program options, SMC offers a format that works for you.
