Mu
Kappa Tau, the National Honor Society for Marketers
Founded in 1966 by Pi Sigma Epsilon, the national fraternity in
marketing, sales management and selling, Mu Kappa Tau is recognized as
the national marketing honor society. Mu Kappa Tau draws together
dynamic students, educators and professionals who share high
aspirations, mutual interest, and dedication to the marketing field. Mu
Kappa Tau invites as members those who have attained academic excellence
and/or have made significant contributions to marketing education or the
profession.
Eligibility Requirements
Similar to most honor societies, membership in Mu Kappa Tau is by
invitation from the School of Business marketing faculty. Mu Kappa
Tau membership at Rutgers University-Camden is limited to students,
majoring or concentrating in Marketing, who meet exceptional academic
requirements. Membership invitations are considered for undergraduate
Marketing majors with 90 or more credits and MBA Marketing concentrators
with 30 or more credits. Invitations are extended to students who have
achieved an overall cumulative grade point average of at least 3.25 on a
4.00 scale, a ranking in the top 20% of their class, and outstanding
academic achievement in Marketing as determined by the faculty.
Membership Fee
Mu
Kappa Tau is a non-profit organization requiring a one-time membership
fee. The $40.00 fee entitles members to life membership in Mu Kappa Tau.
Invitations to Join and Initiation in Mu Kappa Tau
Invitations are extended during the Spring semester. Students who accept
the invitation are inducted into Mu Kappa Tau at the Spring Honors
Ceremony, hosted by the School of Business-Camden in April. At that
time, each Mu Kappa Tau member will be presented with a Certificate of
Membership as well as an Honor Cord. This Cord should be worn at
graduation to indicate high academic achievement and membership in Mu
Kappa Tau. Upon induction through the School of Business ceremony,
individuals become official members of the national chapter of Mu Kappa
Tau.
