Experience Marshall

brochure introduction
From your first days at USC Marshall, you will experience the unique advantages of being part of the Trojan Family as you meet outstanding Marshall freshmen from across the country and around the world.

Like you, they are smart, enthusiastic and ambitious — and excited to be part of a high-energy, collaborative environment that will prepare them for lifetime of achievement. You will also discover the wide range of Marshall and University-wide student-run organizations, offering myriad opportunities for leadership, networking and community service.

Your professors at Marshall will be distinguished scholars and practitioners — internationally renowned experts in business and related disciplines who enjoy sharing their knowledge with undergraduates. You will find our faculty to be as eager to explain a complex subject as they are to listen and respond to your career plans, or to provide directed research opportunities.

As a freshman, you will start building the foundation of your business studies with core courses that present theoretical principles as they relate to practical applications and an entrepreneurial mindset.

You will be encouraged to broaden your horizons — and your future marketability — by pursuing a double major, or a minor in an unrelated field. You can further customize your Marshall experience by selecting from upper-division elective courses that directly relate to your career goals.

Throughout your Marshall experience, you will be immersed in the global culture of 21st-century business, beginning in freshman year with a program that culminates in an intensive 10-day study trip to a major industrial center in Asia, Europe, Latin America or Australia.

At the same time, you will discover the benefits that only Los Angeles can offer, a city rich in cultural diversity, entertainment options and leading companies on the cutting edge.
