As Virginia Tech’s premier student marketing and communication organization, AMA@VT is much more than just VT’s student arm of the premier global organization for marketers.

Yes, the AMA chapter bridges the gap between academics and practice by offering students of all majors' opportunities for skills development, professional connections, and real-world experience as Pamplin’s first full-service, student-run marketing agency. And yes, the organization also shapes tomorrow’s marketing professionals through a litany of workshops, and guest speaking engagements. But what really elevates the group is its dedication to its core values and service projects.

Recently, AMA@VT hosted their annual meeting with the Blacksburg High School DECA club to mentor students for their upcoming international competition, a central activity that AMA members look forward to each school year which focuses on guiding the young marketers of tomorrow. Over 30 DECA students joined AMA members for coaching on presentations at this year’s joint meeting.

Along with leadership and professional growth, mentorship is a core value of AMA@VT, and its members bring Virginia Tech’s motto, Ut Prosim—That I May Serve—to life.
