Is "Marketing" considered a Social Science?

[peppermint_drops]

Hey there!

I was looking at the admission requirements for a master's degree and they stated that they only accepted students having a bachelor's degree in the field of Social Sciences.
Does Marketing count as a social science? and if it doesn't, what type of science is it?

Thanks a lot!

because the academic study of marketing makes extensive use of social sciences, psychology, sociology, mathematics, economics, anthropology and neuroscience, the profession is now widely recognized as a science, allowing numerous universities to offer Master-of-Science (MSc) programmes.

Marketing is considered a business-related degree. Social Sciences would be something like Psychology, Sociology, etc. But, before you just take our word for it, call the school and find out! It can't hurt. They are the only ones that will be able to give you the best answer.
