Marketing

Marketing addresses the fundamental truths about human behavior and applies them in specific business settings. McKenna School students are provided with the necessary background and tools to understand the role of marketing in business and society by leaning heavily on the quantitative and social sciences, particularly economics, psychology, and statistics. These diverse conceptual, theoretical, and empirical underpinnings of marketing give Saint Vincent students a working knowledge of how marketing interrelates with all functional areas of business and influences virtually all organizational plans and decisions.
