Marketing Degree Programs

Schools with established MBA (Master of Business Administration) and Ph.D. programs generally offer the best marketing degrees. MBA programs can offer an emphasis or concentration in marketing, while Ph.D. programs offer it as a research specialty. The top marketing programs are those with faculty members specializing in specific aspects of marketing research. A master's or doctoral level degree in marketing can open up a world of opportunity in the field of business.
