National Agri-Marketing Association is an awesome club to join! Each year, the Penn State NAMA chapter travels to a national competition in which projects in marketing are showcased. There are about 20-25 students every year who are in NAMA at Penn State. In past years, the PSU team competed in exciting places such as Atlanta, Kansas City, Nashville, and Dallas. And this year students went to San Diego! It’s a great activity to increase your knowledge and abilities in marketing, presentation and networking with other professionals in agribusiness. In addition to competing, the students have fun and meet new people.

The Penn State chapter holds twice-monthly meetings with speakers on career topics and also plans social events to help students interested in agribusiness to become better acquainted. Your involvement in NAMA can also earn you academic credit! See NAMA advisors Dr. Jim Beierlein or Dr. Jeff Hyde, the club Web site or the national Web site for more information.

Congratulations to the 2003 PSU NAMA team who made it to the Semi-Finals in San Diego!
