Marketing Management, Global Logistics, and Multi-channel Sales and Distribution are important topics today. Classroom environments that encourage experiential learning with student-to-faculty, and student-to-student interactions are desired. Case studies of marketing situations faced by brands and organizations as well as assignments that require students to apply what they have learned create rewarding online or onsite learning environments.
