Marketing (Minor)
Overview
In today’s digital age, marketing and sales have become important skills in the workplace. By adding the Marketing Minor to your degree, you’ll graduate with these important skills that will make you stand out in the job market. You’ll take marketing courses in Personal Selling, Promotional Strategy, Marketing Research, Buyer Behaviour, Digital Marketing, Customer Relationship Management and more. At the end of the minor you’ll take the Marketing Practicum, where you’ll build a marketing strategy and create marketing materials for a for-profit or non-profit organization.
In order to take the Marketing Minor, you must be enrolled in a bachelor’s program at Douglas College that is not the Bachelor of Business Administration in Marketing.
Admissions Requirements
There are no separate admission requirements for a minor, but students must be enrolled in a degree program in order to complete a minor.
Cost
You can get an average cost for your program - tuition and student fees, books, uniforms, lab fees etc - on the Program Cost page.
Only programs approved for student loan funding are listed on the Program Cost page. For all other programs, refer to the Tuition Fee page.
Program Requirements
- This minor is available for all degree students, except those receiving a BBA in Marketing.
- Successful completion of at least 24 credits
- 15 credits upper level coursework required
- Courses taken as part of another credential can still be used to meet the requirements for this minor. For example, students taking the BBA Finance are required to take MARK 1120 for their major, but this course would also satisfy the requirements for this minor and contributes three credits towards this minor's 24 required credits.
