The Business of Relationships
The need for students with an aptitude for sales coupled with a business background is growing. Graduates with a degree balanced with business disciplines and sales skills are in higher demand and will have opportunities for high paying jobs soon after graduation.
Professional Sales is Now a Major at Huntsman
The Huntsman School of Business is expanding opportunities for students with the launch of a new Professional Sales major, preparing graduates for one of the most in-demand and versatile career paths in business.
Professional sales focuses on serving customers through building long-term relationships, understanding customer needs, and identifying ways to provide value and drive growth for organizations.
This new major builds on more than a decade of career placement and educational success from the nationally recognized Huntsman ProSales Student Association, providing students across Utah with the opportunity to develop skills that employers consistently seek: communication, relationship building, negotiation, business development, and leadership.
