Sports Management Learning Outcomes

Students majoring in sports management will demonstrate management skills related to sports and sports facilities. Students will articulate the connections between business and sports, fitness, and recreation.

Curriculum Design

The sports management program is an interdisciplinary program carefully designed to provide students with knowledge, skills, and abilities congruent with careers with organizations, which could include professional and semi-professional, interscholastic, intercollegiate, and recreational levels.

Complementary Programs

Students in the sports management program are encouraged to take a complementary minor or institutional endorsement in more focused areas of interest such as psychology, sociology, communications, business, marketing, professional writing, or fitness.

Upper-level Course Requirements

The sports management major is not designed to include the 36 upper-level credit hours required for graduation. Students in the sports management major should include upper-level coursework in their electives to ensure they will meet graduation requirements.

Program Oversight

The sports management major is overseen by the Department of Health and Human Performance. Courses with HES, HPR, and REC numbers are administered by this department. Questions about the major should be directed to the department chair.
