Professional Sales Concentration (PRSL)

The Bachelor of Science in Business Marketing Management Major Concentration: Professional Sales (PRSL) program in the Marketing Department in the Pamplin College of Business is designed to prepare students for careers in professional sales. According to a study by the Chally Group, nearly "66 percent of all college and university graduates will enter a sales career." Furthermore, data shows that over 80 percent of all marketing graduates nationally will accept a sales position. So why not be prepared?

In addition to the standard Marketing major requirements, the PRSL concentration consists of the following courses.

Requirements:

  • MKTG 4554 Buyer-Seller Relationships (Pre: MKTG 3104)
  • MKTG 4454 Sales Force Management (Pre: MKTG 3104, MKTG 4204, MKTG 4554)
