The 21-credit Minor in Marketing is intended for non-business majors who have aspirations and goals in business that will require marketing skills. As an alternative to the more traditional Minor in Business, the Minor in Marketing fulfills such students’ educational needs while allowing them to pursue their own career goals more directly.

The Marketing Minor is declared in the school of the student's major. It is the student's responsibility to contact their major department for the department's prodedure. The Marketing Minor is open to students pursuing non-Kelley School of Business majors.
