What will I learn?

The sport administration master's program is designed to prepare graduates for a career working in sport at any level. Our comprehensive curriculum allows students to pursue both an applied and theoretical approach to sport. If your goal is to work in sport, or continue your education beyond a master's degree, our program can make it happen. Students can pursue a Master of Arts (MA) or a Master of Science (MS) in Sport Administration depending on their career goals. MA students need to complete a 33-credit curriculum highlighted by an onsite internship or a research project supervised by a faculty mentor. The MA focuses on applied experience that can translate to employment after graduation. The 33-hour program is designed to be completed in a two-year period taking 6-9 credit hours (2-3 courses) per semester. It is possible to finish the program in less than two years by taking 9-12 credit hours (3-4 courses) per semester.
