I've got a minor in Marketing. Could easily get another degree in it with not much more work. But, I'm gonna have to side with Fmr12b a little on this one. Marketing degrees aren't in high demand unless you've got a Master. Most everyone I know who got one (and I know more than a few since my degree plan (Logistics) was in the same department) is either unemployed and forced to continue work on a graduate degree or, at best, a manager of some small retail establishment like a Starbucks.



Or working for Enterprise rent a car....

Advertising is an offshoot of the Journalism department so if that is what interests you you may want to look into that area. Creative writing, print media, and graphic design all being part of it.




Im kind of leaning towards Marketing or Advertising.. this is what I understand and have heard Marketing to be: Its the "pre-advertising" stage, where the promotions, and brainstorming of how to get a new product to certain demographics is thought of. Its kinda like the thinking of how to advertise a certain new product so people will like it.

Failure is simply the opportunity to begin again, this time more intelligently.
