Are Marketing Degrees Worthless?

On episode #91 of the Rethink Marketing Podcast, Eric and Colin dig into the often politicized topic of whether marketing degrees are invaluable or worthless. Is a marketing degree as fundamental to success as a medical degree or as useless as a degree in bovine tattoo art? Are employers putting too much stock in classroom performance? Have internships, case studies, simulations, business tours, job shadowing and other experiences replaced traditional lectures? Is four years of experience better than a degree alone? It all comes down to this: to be a great marketing leader, do you need a four year degree or don’t you? Class may not be in session, but we definitely hope you learn something!
