Program Description

It’s no longer enough to place ads, issue press releases, and update the company website – businesses need marketing specialists, and Northern's online marketing program will prepare you for current workforce demands.

In NSU’s marketing program, offered online and on-campus, you’ll gain an edge by learning to stay on top of trends and technology; and how social media, search, video, and analytics work in the marketing mix.

As an NSU marketing student, you’ll develop and polish skills in interpersonal communication, writing, critical thinking, analytics, project management, creativity and expression, negotiation, and technology. You’ll also master product, distribution, pricing, promotional activity, and managing customer relationships.

Our marketing program offers a variety of learning settings, from traditional classroom lectures to hands-on, client-centered marketing projects.

Specialization areas

Choose from four areas of specialization:

  • Marketing Management  brings together the art and science of choosing, getting, keeping, and growing customers by creating and delivering superior customer value.
  • Digital Marketing  focuses on the integration of technology and the use of data to gain insight into customers’ motivations, preferences, and behaviors.
  • Digital Media  concentrates on the skills needed to produce creative digital content and write engaging captions needed in marketing, especially social media marketing.

The marketing major is excellent preparation for graduate studies in marketing.
