Marketing Major

<p>I really think that I want to study marketing in college and I was wondering how marketing is generally looked upon as a major. Is it a stable major if you want to make a career of it? Thank you.</p>

<p>Also, does anyone know the top schools for undergrad. marketing? thanks</p>

<p>I believe UT-Austin is #3 in the country for marketing.</p>
