Sport Management

The BS in Sport Management program is designed for those students with a career interest in athletic administration, coaching, recreational management, facilities management, and sport marketing.

The primary goals of this program are:

  • To develop an in-depth knowledge of managerial planning, organizing, and evaluating within the context of a sport organization;
  • to develop competent leaders for the various professions that focus on sport outside the public school arena;
  • and to provide the foundation for students who desire to continue their study in a graduate program focusing on sport management.
