Connecting the market

School of Marketing and International Business (SMIB) faculty members conduct scholarly research on a variety of important topics and regularly publish their research in high quality academic journals. Many SMIB faculty members do research on marketing management and strategy issues, including several working in the area of organizational frontline research, which examines the interfaces and interactions that occur at the point of connection between buyers and sellers. Other SMIB faculty members perform research about consumers, including a healthy dose of societal marketing and public policy topics.
