MARKETING
TRANSFER STUDENT ADVISEMENT SERVICES
TRANSFER MAP Marketing is concerned with the identification of wants and needs by buyers and the development of products, distribution channels, price and communications to satisfy those wants and needs. A marketing graduate will likely be involved in performance and management of many traditional areas of decision-making—sales, advertising, logistics and marketing research. OSU-Tulsa students take coursework in areas such as general marketing, consumer behavior, promotion, sales management, services marketing, electronic commerce, marketing research, channels and international marketing. While studying marketing, students often select courses in other fields such as international business, management, management information systems or finance to support a particular career choice within the marketing field.
