Course Description :

Sport is a global and expanding industry offering a range of exciting career opportunities for graduates with a strong understanding of business, finance and management in a sporting context.

Our BSc Sports Management degree is co-taught by the School of Sport, Exercise and Health Sciences (currently ranked 1st in the world for sports-related subjects) and the School of Business and Economics (one of the UK's leading business schools) to equip you with vital skills in marketing, organisational management, and accounting.

The degree will provide you with a thorough grounding in the key strategic challenges and opportunities for sport by developing your understanding of sports organisations, governance, policy, marketing and economics.

Optional modules allow you to explore the wider context of sport management as it relates to coaching, leadership, society, physical activity and wellbeing, enabling you to pursue your interests and develop the skills and knowledge sought by graduate employers.

With a strong focus on employability throughout the course, you will have the opportunity to work with Loughborough Sport and our partners on real-world business issues, take advantage our our strong partnerships across sport to secure an optional year-long placement, and put theory into practice alongside elite athletes on campus via our Coach and Volunteer Academy (CVA).

You will also explore the social and policy environment in which sport management takes place, developing your understanding of economics and marketing in sport management, and examining the strategic and organisational elements of sport management.

These experiences prepare our graduates for employment in commercial and non-commercial organisations in development, marketing, operations, brand management, sponsorship strategy and communications across the sport sector, as well as in a variety of management, marketing, finance and accounting roles.
