Chair's Welcome  

The Department of Management, Marketing, & Logistics is home to the two largest undergraduate majors at Georgia College & State University. We are excited that you are considering our programs.  

A degree in Marketing prepares students for productive career opportunities ranging from advertising and sales promotion to retail, product, brand, or social media management. The marketing major will challenge students to acquire, build, and utilize quantitative, qualitative, critical thinking, problem solving, and creative skills. Marketing majors may also choose a concentration in sales, which develops communication skills used not only in professional selling but also in everyday business situations. 

A degree in Management prepares students to effectively manage resources, processes, and people. Management is the process of planning, organizing, developing, and controlling resources to maximize the effectiveness of an organization, but it is also the art of getting things done correctly. Management is a universal process that requires technical and interpersonal skills that will apply to small businesses, large organizations, and more importantly to people. Management majors may choose from concentrations in logistics and supply chain or in human resources.  

Our department also offers the online Master of Logistics and Supply Chain Management (MLSCM). This advanced degree uniquely positions graduates for career advancement and leadership opportunities in the dynamic logistics and supply chain industry.
