Marketing Majors: Get Involved with AMA

The American Marketing Association is a professional association for individuals leading in the practice, teaching, and development of marketing knowledge worldwide.
AMA, UNC Charlotte's chapter has a principle role to serve as a forum to connect like-minded individuals and foster knowledge sharing, provide resources, tools, and training and support marketing practice and though leadership.

The first general body meeting of the semester will be held on Wednesday, January 23rd at 5:30pm in Friday 155. Come one, come all (new and returners, any major or year)!

If you're interested in joining the AMA Executive Leadership Team, please join us for our first E-board meeting in Library Room G 36 at 5:30pm this Wednesday, January 16th.

Each semester AMA hosts speakers, networking events, resume reviews, and opportunities to enhance your marketing skills. They also travel to New Orleans every Spring for the AMA International Collegiate Conference.

Last November, they hosted a Recruiters' Circle and heard from representatives from Red Ventures, Ecomdash, and Wyndham Capital Mortgage.

Current president, Lexi Hunkler, describes her experience with the organization.


"AMA has challenged me throughout my college career and provided a wonderful platform to get involved, progress as a leader, and network with peers and marketing professionals. It has provided me a hands-on marketing experience and professional growth. I am thankful for the ample opportunity for meeting new people, traveling, and learning that AMA has provided me."

Many faculty and local marketing professionals are involved with the Charlotte chapter of AMA. Cindy Fox (professor of marketing) also serves on the executive board.
