Professional Sales Degree

Selling is perhaps one the most universal skills one can obtain. Walsh University’s professional sales major allows students to hone that skill and apply it multiple facets. The curriculum features a heavy focus on Relationship-Driven Selling, which is vital to ensuring long-term customer commitments in B2B sales. A major in professional sales also pairs well with a concurrent major in marketing, management or data analytics.

According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics for Professional Sales:

  • Median Salary (Sales Managers): $126,640 
  • Number of Jobs (in US) Sales Managers: 433,800 
  • Growth by 2029: 4%

Why Walsh?

Business understanding. Our students learn how important effective management is for an organization's success and ultimate sustainability.

Responsible best-practices. Ethical, social, moral and personal responsibility is emphasized throughout the coursework and embedded in our students' classroom and experiential learning.

Integrated Curriculum. We established principles for each major, and these become themes that are carried out and reiterated through the curriculum and any experiential experiences. It's part of our effort to help students retain what they're learning and to offer them a foundation to draw upon throughout their collegiate career and beyond.
