So, I'm looking on going to uni again to take something business related. I'm not really good with counting and math so i'm looking on taking something in the marketing field. Yet I heard that marketing has many branches.

Does anyone know what branch of marketing is most profitable? Cos honestly, any branch of marketing would be fine by me. I just need to know which one is most needed and profitable.

Three branches of marketing communication:
-Advertising
-PR
-Marketing (Communication)

Both jobs and money in advertising have been steadily declining over the last decade. If you're looking to earn good money and make the most out of earning a degree, I would stick with a marketing degree (or business degree with a concentration in marketing communication). I'm a sophomore marketing student in Chicago and I plan on (hopefully) going into international corporate marketing, either for entertainment, technology or fashion. I see a lot of money and opportunity in global marketing

Wow thanks that helped me a lot. Just out of curiosity, what does international cooperate marketing actually revolves around?

Well, if the context is an American company (whether or not they are already international), such as Panera, international corporate marketing would involve marketing Panera's products and franchise to other parts of the world (hence 'international'). International franchise expansion; it's basically trying to give a company business in an area they don't do business in (like McDonald's, they do business everywhere.. America, Canada, Europe, Asia, etc.)
