Sales Center Goals

This Center was formed in July 2007 with two specific goals:

1. Education Focus:  Enhance the perception of the sales profession while preparing students for a career in sales.  Development of appropriate curriculum to include a both a major and minor in Sales.
2. Business Focus: Strengthen the relationship between WKU and Corporations.  Develop partnerships with corporations to provide real-world classroom activities in addition to internship or full-time employment opportunities.

We have grown more than 300% in the last decade are are among the fastest growing programs on campus.  Currently, we have nearly 300 students who are either majoring or minoring in sales. Within that minor, more than 20 different majors are represented, ranging from finance to public relations and agriculture to psychology.
