Who are we?
The Bruin Advertising & Marketing Team is UCLA’s only student-run advertising agency. Since our founding in 1997, AdTeam’s goal has been to build a supportive network of diverse students passionate about marketing. Every year, our team of 35 students competes in the National Student Advertising Competition, creating and presenting a detailed marketing plan to industry professionals. We provide students with necessary real-world marketing experience and our alumni go on to work at top advertising firms and influential companies.
What’s the problem?
As the only student-run advertising agency at UCLA, coupled with the absence of an undergraduate marketing major, students interested in this industry must search independently for relevant work experience and mentorship. AdTeam offers both experience, in the form of the National Student Advertising Competition, and mentorship, through our supportive network of over 200 alumni and students dedicated to the industry. However, these opportunities would not be possible without our supporters and donations, funding our participation in this competition and this student-run organization as a whole.
How can you help?
You can help AdTeam support our community of UCLA students passionate about marketing by donating to our campaign! Funding for our team covers fees to register for the National Student Advertising Competition, host networking events with industry professionals, and travel to the competition to represent our school. Every cent donated goes directly to supporting our members and our campaign. We would be extremely grateful for your help!
