Marketing Student Organization

American Marketing Association University of Arkansas Collegiate Chapter

The American Marketing Association Collegiate Chapter at the University of Arkansas is a student-run organization dedicated to providing students with the tools, real-world experience and networking opportunities that will aid them in their careers through involvement with both the University of Arkansas and the community.
In addition to working with non-profit companies to create marketing campaigns, organizing fundraisers, and offering guest speakers throughout the year, we also take 3-5 students to the AMA International Collegiate Conference yearly to aid in our chapter's knowledge and operations.

SOARS is a student organization that prepares students to enter the workforce. Students have many opportunities to focus on professional development, leadership enhancement and professional neworking. Through networking and development opportunities, this organization exposes all interested UA students to the benefits of careers in the industry.
SOARS is affiliated with the Center for Retailing Excellence, which, through a strong partnership with retailer and supplier industries, is one of the foremost internationally acclaimed centers for retail studies focused on research and the development of students as future leaders in the retailing and related industries. The Center provides a bridge between academics and industry for developing future leaders.
