MKTG 415

Digital Marketing

Marketing and Global Supply Chain Marriott School of Business

Course Description

Digital marketing is broad and varied, so rather than digging deeply into one topic (e.g., search engine optimization) and ignoring all other topics, this class will cover a wide variety of digital marketing topics. Students will customize their experience by choosing between two different "tracks" in the course: a strategic emphasis or tactical emphasis.\n \n

Note

MKTG 415 is held online, not in a classroom. A large majority of the class sessions are "asynchronous" videos that you can watch whenever you want. A few of the class sessions are students presenting the results of their group work, and those sessions will be "synchronous" Zoom sessions held at the appointed class time.
