Students who add a marketing minor are equipped with the skills and competencies required to understand, create, and maintain mutually beneficial exchanges between organizations and their customers. The minor offers courses in marketing management and integrated marketing communications, among others.

In addition to gaining a strong general business foundation, students work closely with professors to obtain valuable skills in a variety of areas from market research to marketing management, consumer behavior to social media. DC's faculty members strive to prepare their graduates to think creatively about business problems, make sound business decisions, and work successfully in the business world.
