Marketing Major
Introducing Kellogg's Marketing Major
The marketing major provides you with the customer behavior and marketing analytics tools needed to create lasting customer advantage. It also provides marketing strategy frameworks that enable firms to apply these insights when creating and responding to disruptions in the marketplace. Students who complete the marketing major understand how to deliver superior customer experiences that strengthen competitive advantage and drive sustainable growth.
Major requirements are determined by the quarter you began your Kellogg MBA program. Any new courses and adjustments to the major displayed in the most recent academic year can be applied to previously matriculated students.
