Consumer Behavior Concentration

Advertising, brand management, marketing -- these are some of the career paths open to Freeman MBA students in consumer behavior.  There are several key features of the Freeman curriculum that benefit you if you are developing a career in marketing focused on consumer behavior:

  • It is practical. Course content is dictated by the skills and knowledge sets you need to succeed in a marketing career rather than by traditional academic interests.
  • It is sequenced to synchronize the timing of your marketing training to the timing of your job search. Technical skills useful in summer internships and initial interviews are emphasized early in the curriculum and more complex integrative skills are developed later as you approach job site visits and graduation.

    This is a distinct advantage of the Freeman School's marketing curriculum. Courses tie your training more tightly to the needs of the companies that recruit you, and hence, more tightly to your interests as you face a competitive job market.

    Concentration in Consumer Behavior

    Students may earn a concentration in consumer behavior by completing the following 12 credit hours:
    GMGT 737 Negotiations (3 credit hours)
    MKTG 766 Marketing Planning and Implementation (3 credit hours)
    MKTG 770 Sales Force Marketing (3 credit hours)
    MKTG 784 Consumer Behavior (3 credit hours)

    Students pursuing the consumer behavior concentration are encouraged to take Marketing Research for Practice of Management II (GMGT 626) and Strategic Consulting for Practice of Management III (GMGT 629). For students interested in pursuing a double concentration in consumer behavior and strategic management and leadership, GMGT 737 can count toward both concentrations.
