USI’s marketing minor is designed to help you easily combine basic marketing competencies from other business disciplines such as economics, finance and accounting, and non-business disciplines such as advertising, sports management, and health administration. Many of the marketing courses have hands-on, real world cases that you will deconstruct and analyze. You’ll regularly have one-on-one interactions with caring faculty in small classes. No matter what career field you intend to enter, marketing plays an important role in companies both large and small.
The Romain College of Business has earned accreditation from AACSB, which is considered the "gold standard" for business accreditation. Only 5.7% of business schools, globally, have earned that accreditation. Achieving accreditation is a multi-year process of rigorous internal focus, engagement with an AACSB-assigned mentor and peer-reviewed evaluation. Schools must develop and implement a plan to align with accreditation standards. These standards require excellence in areas relating to strategic management and innovation; student, faculty, and staff as active participants; learning and teaching; and academic and professional engagement.
An undergraduate student should initiate a Change of Academic Program if they wish to add or remove a minor.
The student obtains a Change of Academic Program form from the Registrar's Office or the department of the new major/minor, secures the signature of the department chair/director (or dean) of any major/minor to be added, and returns the form to the Registrar's Office for processing.
A student must submit the completed form by the Thursday before priority registration if the change is to be made within the current semester. Unless granted a waiver by the department of the new major, the student must meet all current program requirements for graduation.
No matter what your major is, you could benefit from a marketing minor. Marketing minors learn how to communicate more efficiently, how to effectively target customers or clients and how to effectively manage an image relating to yourself, your product or service, or your organization. These are assets that prove valuable in a wide range of career fields.
