UConn students have a number of opportunities to develop specialized skills in marketing, to do an internship to practice what they learn, and to participate in academic research. Marketing majors can earn a concentration in Digital Marketing & Analytics or Professional Sales Leadership.

Robotics is a multidisciplinary field that draws on aspects from electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, and computer engineering. The proposed curriculum is built around fundamental core courses in each of these areas that are then brought together with specific robotics engineering courses. The Robotics Engineering program educational objectives are that our alumni/ae:

• make technical contributions to design, development, and manufacturing in their practice of robotics engineering.
• advance in their professional career.
• engage in professional development or post-graduate education to pursue flexible career paths amid future technological changes.

The Bachelor of Fine Arts in Acting at the University of Connecticut is an intensive, conservatory-style program designed to prepare students for direct entry into performance careers in all areas of professional theatre, including television and film.
