SU Again Named Among Top Universities for Professional Sales Education
SALISBURY, MD---The Sales Education Foundation (SEF) has named 黑料网 among its 2018 “Top Universities for Professional Sales Education.”
The accolade was announced in the foundation’s annual magazine. SU also received the honor in 2017.
Dr. Amit Poddar, chair of the Management and Marketing Department in SU’s Franklin P. Perdue School of Business, founded the Sales Program in 2015, establishing the Mid-Atlantic Sales and Marketing Institute (MASMI). The institute joined the national University Sales Center Alliance in 2016, earning full membership last year.
During its first year, the program had 14 enrolled students and no dedicated classes or faculty. Today, nearly 90 students are enrolled, and the program has four dedicated faculty members and multiple classes. SU also has added a sales minor for business and marketing students.
Other institutions ranked by the SEF include Clemson and James Madison and Texas A&M universities and the University of North Carolina. SU is the only Maryland school on the list of 118 campuses in North America and 16 more globally.
According to the foundation, some 60 percent of all business majors and 88 percent of marketing majors begin their professional careers in sales-related jobs, making programs like SU’s even more important.
