Mobile devices, social media platforms, and emerging technologies have dramatically changed the way people gather, use, and share information. Successful businesses know that customer purchase behavior is heavily influenced by digital channels, and marketing budgets follow. As a result, most employers require more extensive knowledge of digital marketing from their employees – even from staff with traditional marketing roles.

Rutgers Business School's Master of Science in Digital Marketing is a fully online, AACSB accredited program intentionally created to address the need for a larger talent pool of digital marketing experts. This in-depth, dynamic, 30-credit program provides marketing professionals with relevant and current content delivered by industry practitioners and scholars with years of experience in the digital marketing field.

“Through my research of digital marketing programs, I know there are certificate programs and shorter programs out there. The benefit of getting my master’s is that I’m bringing a different perspective and a deeper understanding to my job. This isn’t just the basics. I’m delving deep and bringing that knowledge to a company. That's the main thing for me.”
