Bachelor of Sport and Recreation - Sport Management Major

Develop expertise in sport management, marketing, facilities and events management, sponsorship, sport development, high performance sport leadership, law and finance.

Management skills are needed across the sport and recreation industries. The sports field isn't like a traditional business and neither are the management skills needed to succeed in this area. With the large number of professional athletes, sports organisations, facilities and events in New Zealand, people with specialist business and management skills are in high demand.

You learn from staff with international and national experience, and have the opportunity to work with local and national sporting bodies and events.
