Help MSUB Marketing Students Compete, Connect, and Launch Careers
The American Marketing Association (AMA) Club at MSU Billings is raising funds to support conference travel to Chicago in March 2026, giving students the opportunity to engage in one of the most valuable professional development experiences available to emerging marketers.
At the AMA National Conference, students don’t just attend sessions; they compete, collaborate, and connect. Participants represent MSUB in marketing competitions, gain hands-on insight through industry-led workshops, and network directly with professionals and recruiters shaping today’s marketing landscape. For many students, this conference is a critical bridge between the classroom and their future careers.
Why This Experience Matters
Since 2021, the AMA Club has been an active presence on campus, providing students with opportunities to apply what they learn in real-world settings. The 2026 conference will mark the fourth year MSUB students have attended this national event—continuing a growing tradition of experiential learning, professional growth, and career readiness.
The club currently has nine student members and, with sufficient funding, hopes to send most of them to Chicago. For these students, attending the conference means:
-
Competing in nationally recognized marketing challenges
-
Gaining exposure to current industry trends and tools
-
Building professional networks that lead to internships and jobs
-
Representing MSU Billings on a national stage
