The M.A. in Sport Management is a 36-credit program designed to prepare students to blend general management skills with the specific demands of managing sport organizations. Sport management majors acquire a strong foundation in management theory, financial management, communication, ethics, marketing and promotion, and legal aspects of sport. Specific courses in the sport management curriculum provide students with an understanding of the role of sports in society, the role of management in sports, and the opportunity to apply their knowledge in sports-related internships. Towards this end, all courses are designed to meet and/or exceed national standards set forth by the Commission of Sport Management Accreditation, and instruction will focus on both theoretical and applied knowledge.
