Marketing Advisory Board

The Department of Marketing Advisory Board is comprised of successful industry partners, all Clemson supporters or alumni, who will advise on industry and national matters that directly and indirectly affect marketing students, faculty and staff. The purpose of this board is to bring industry partners together with the Department of Marketing to generate thoughts, ideas and strategic planning initiatives to prepare for both current market trends and future circumstances. Each board member will serve at least a two-year term, and the board meets once a semester.
