Martin J. Whitman School of Management
Curriculum
In most Whitman marketing courses, experiential learning plays an important role. Like marketing professionals, students work in project teams to develop strategies for new product development, pricing, promotion and distribution. Students also learn to proactively plan for competitive challenges, regulatory changes and evolving social responsibilities.
