The mission of the collegiate division of the is to further the professional development of the affiliated collegiate chapters and student members through leadership development, training and involvement in the field of marketing.
The AMA collegiate chapter will help you gain valuable experience managing finances, people, projects and deadlines and perfect skills to highlight on your resume! Collegiate chapters focus on professional development, community service and fundraising, as well as hosting activities like Marketing Week, with marketing speakers, etiquette dinners, open houses and more. For more additional information, contact Dr. Luke Liska.
A degree in marketing opens up a wide range of career opportunities across various industries. You could work in brand management, marketing research and analytics, advertising, public relations, digital marketing, professional sales, and more.
To gain deeper insights into marketing, we recommend exploring online resources such as industry blogs, reputable marketing websites, and business publications. Additionally, attending marketing conferences, workshops, or webinars can provide you with a firsthand look into the latest trends and innovations. Our department also offers campus events and guest lectures from industry professionals, which will give you a taste of what a marketing career entails.
Another excellent way to learn more about the field is to enroll in a Principles of Marketing course. Material in this class covers all the areas of marketing, and you do not need any other business courses to enroll. Marketing professors are also available to talk with you at any time about your career interests, or to answer any questions you might have about the marketing major. Finally, people working in marketing jobs can give you insightful information regarding the dynamics of marketing.
An internship is the supervised placement of a student in a profit or not-for-profit work setting for a specified period of time. Internships carry academic credit and can be paid or unpaid. It is a learning and working experience that is structured with learning objectives. When you leave Radford, your marketability will be enhanced with an Internship.
You must be a declared business major, Junior or Senior in good standing, with a GPA of 2.5, and the majority of business core classes completed. You must have completed the introductory course(s) for your major to qualify. This is a senior level course for business majors. The courses are: ACTG 490, ECON 490, FINC 490, MGNT 490, MKTG 490. You cannot register for the course online.
The basic process is:
Typically, an internship course requires a journal, reflective paper and portfolio. Your respective intern faculty advisor will discuss learning objectives and course requirements with you. Reflection on your experience will illuminate your strengths and weaknesses. You will have the opportunity to capitalize on your strengths, and improve on your weaknesses before you leave 澳门老奇人论坛.
You will not be registered for the class until all paperwork is signed and approved. If your internship is unpaid, you cannot begin work until all paperwork is signed. This is a violation of labor laws.
The Davis College of Business and Economics does NOT give internship course credit for work and or experiences you have already gained. You must discuss learning objectives with the course faculty advisor prior to accepting a position for course credit.

The 澳门老奇人论坛 Marketing Department has adopted the citation style established by the American Psychological Association (APA) for documenting sources used in papers assigned by departmental faculty. APA style requires both in鈥恡ext citations and a reference list. For every in鈥恡ext citation, there should be a full citation in the reference list and vice versa. The examples provided are for the most common types of sources used in student鈥恇ased research.
If you are unsure about something, ask the professor for the class in which you are preparing the paper. For additional examples or more detailed information about the APA citation style, you may refer to the following sites:
There are two types of in鈥恡ext citations:
If you are quoting directly from a work, you need to include the author, year of publication and the page number for the reference (preceded by 鈥減.鈥). If you are citing from an electronic source that does not provide page numbers, use the paragraph number, if available, preceded by the paragraph symbol (露) or the abbreviation 鈥減ara.鈥. If there are no paragraph numbers, cite the heading and the number of the paragraph following it to direct the reader to the location of the material.
Examples of Citation in Short Quotations from a Printed Source
According to Stanton (2006), 鈥淢arketing is good stuff鈥 (p. 35).
鈥淢arketing is good stuff鈥 (Stanton, p. 35).
Example of Citation in Long Quotations (more than 40 words) from a Printed Source 鈥 these quotes should be in a free鈥恠tanding block without quotation marks. Start the quotation on a new line, indented five spaces from the left margin. The parenthetical citation should come after the closing punctuation mark.
As Al鈥怟hatib, Stanton & Rawwas noted (2005):
Suspicious Shoppers believe that others may take advantage of them if the situation
were to present itself. This group also tends to think that morality may be situational鈥恠pecific. Interestingly,
though, Suspicious Shoppers are quite idealistic. They do not wish to do anything that
might hurt others. While it seems that this idealistic tendency is in conflict with
their relativistic beliefs, it more clearly delineates this group鈥檚 lack of trust.
While Suspicious Shoppers are not likely to engage in unethical actions themselves,
they may choose to not be completely forthright in their disclosures with others for
fear of being exploited. (p. 239)
The last name of the author and the year of publication are inserted in the text at the appropriate point.
Marketers must design products that are globally focused (Tong, 2001)
If the name of the author or the date appears as part of the narrative text, cite
only the missing
information in parentheses.
Examples:
Tong (2001) believed that鈥︹︹
In 2001 Tong asserted that鈥︹.
When a work has two authors, always cite both names every time the reference occurs
in the text.
When the names of the authors are enclosed in parentheses, join the names with an
ampersand (&)
rather than the word 鈥渁nd鈥.
鈥..as occurs in theory (Taylor & Tong, 1999)
If the name of the author appears in the text, be sure to include the year the article
was published in
parentheses and join the names with the word 鈥渁nd鈥.
鈥..as Taylor and Tong (1999) demonstrated鈥..
If a work cited has three or more authors, cite all authors at the first mention.
In all subsequent
citations, include only the surname of the first author followed by 鈥渆t al.鈥 (this
is Latin for 鈥渁nd others鈥)
along with the year of publication.
Example of First Mention: Bienstock, Stanaland, & Stanton (2004) found鈥︹..
Example of Subsequent Mention: Bienstock, et al. (2004) found鈥︹..
If you are citing a work with no author listed, use the first two or three words of
the work鈥檚 title
(omitting any initial articles such as The, A, An, etc.) as your text reference, capitalizing
each word. Place
the title in quotation marks if it refers to an article/chapter in a book or a document/page
on a web site.
Italicize the title if it refers to a book, periodical, brochure, or report.
Example of chapter/article in book/web page: 鈥.marketing is everyone鈥檚 business (鈥淢arketing
is Everywhere,鈥 1999)
Example of book/report/periodical/brochure: Consumer behavior is grounded in psychological
principles (Guide to Consumer Behavior, 2002).
