Marketing

History

The history of marketing
Marketing is a fairly new major, evolving around the time of the 1950’s to 1960’s; it is a very popular major that has a lot of job opportunities. In earlier times marketing started in in schools because teachers were pushed to teach marketing skills due to the high amount of jobs that had to do with selling and buying goods. It began in the work place as an inward looking organization, with much of the focus on what would be produced. Now it is more of an outward looking organization, focusing more on the markets and what consumers want to buy. Marketing studies the change in demand due to pricing, gender, race and age and is developing the ability to understand consumers and their wants and needs.
Georgia Southern was started in 1906. In 1968, the college received the approval to separate schools of science, art, education and business. . The College of Business has accreditation through the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) International.
