American Marketing Association

The Collegiate Chapter of the American Marketing Association at the University of South Carolina provides opportunities for members to complement their classroom education with social and educational experiences emphasizing real-world applications.  The group organizes bi-weekly presentations by local and national marketing professionals, as well as regular professional development workshops and marketing field trips to local and regional companies. Active participation allows members to expand their knowledge of marketing, learn about internship and job opportunities, and to network with other students, faculty, and the local business community.
