header-concentrations-2_03

Requirements


Description
Remember the community sports you played as a kid? They were fun, but did you ever consider their impact on your physical and social development? Learn how to manage and deliver similar experiences to others while gaining skills to enhance your degree.

The community sports management concentration focuses on developing skills that support recreational amateur sport programs within the community.

Sport programs exist in a number of settings, including nonprofit organizations, public agencies and corporate programs. For students interested in a career in one of these settings or for those who are simply interested in sport, this concentration can provide additional relevant skills.

This concentration provides the basics of community sport management and supplements a concentration in a community-oriented profession
