Candidates for the marketing track at Virginia Tech are required to have a doctoral degree in psychology (particularly with social or cognitive emphasis), sociology, or statistics from U.S. or non-U.S. universities.  For U.S. universities, a minimum requirement that they have an AACSB-accredited business school will normally apply. Beyond that, the department of the candidate must normally belong to schools accredited by their respective accreditation boards. For non-U.S. universities, the same accreditation requirements will apply except that local accreditation may substitute for U.S. accreditation. Exceptions are possible on a case by case basis.

Admission criteria will include the candidates’ course work, academic performance, research success and teaching experience in their current disciplines.
