The program, founded in 2009, provides students with theoretical knowledge and practical experience, an approach that enables graduates to fill diverse roles within the sports industry.
As the article states, graduates have secured positions with the NFL, NBA, MLB, NCAA and various high school athletic departments across the United States. These professionals are involved in a variety of roles, from sport facilities management and sport marketing to athletic administration and coaching.
