Digital Marketing Certificate

Our mission is to prepare students to create and implement digital marketing strategies as an integral component of an overall marketing plan. Within the context of promotion, students will learn techniques to maximize the effectiveness of owned media, paid media, and earned media. Additionally, students will examine how technology driven tools, such as those derived within data science, can assist in making impactful digital marketing decisions. The Digital Marketing Certificate consists of two courses offered by the School of Business and two courses offered by the School of Technology and Innovation so that students have the opportunity to broaden their skills in both technology and business administration.
