Many job opportunities exist in professional sales for graduates who enjoy the independence and economic rewards that a sales career provides. A major in professional selling focuses on business-to-business selling, helping students learn how to design and deliver effective sales presentations, analyze and manage individual accounts and markets, develop sales plans, and manage the sales force.

Business majors must meet the Coles College Sophomore GPA Requirement and must be admitted to the Coles College Professional Program. In addition, Business majors must earn a grade of “C” or better in the courses that constitute the Lower Division Major Requirements (lower division business core) and the Upper Division Major Requirements (including upper division business core courses, information technology requirement, major field requirements, and major field electives).
