Established in 1993, the Department of Marketing Advisory Council has a two-part mission: (1) to articulate the current and emerging educational and research interests of the business community to the Department; and (2) advise, promote and assist the Department in serving the educational, research and service needs of its students and the business community.
Beyond consulting with our faculty to exchange ideas and develop action items, Council members are involved directly with our students as guest speakers in classes and as participants in other on-campus events. Advisory Council members frequently sponsor marketing internships in their companies, and several are actively involved in recruiting marketing graduates for full-time positions.
The Advisory Council and the Marketing Department share the belief that our joint efforts benefit our students, the department, and the business community. Rather than having a gap between marketing education and practice, we believe that our efforts establish a firm foundation for improving the practice of marketing and enhancing career opportunities for our students.
