About

In the multi-million-dollar global sports industry, a passion for sport together with a head for business and a heart for the game can combine in a lucrative career that will be as rewarding as it is challenging. You can make a career out of your passion for sport by studying sports management – the business end of sports and recreation.

From athlete and facilities management to marketing and finance, a Bachelor of Business (Sports Management) will prepare you for a leadership role in this ever-evolving and intensely exciting business environment.

Our impressive network of industry partners provide invaluable industry insight and experience. When it is time to embark on your industry training, we work closely with them to find a suitable placement that is the best fit for your skills, interests and professional goals. Your industry training could take you to a major city, regional area in Australia or an international city. Not only is this an invaluable experience, it is also a chance to grow your professional network. For many of our graduates this experience introduces them to their future employers.

The teaching of this course integrates the practical experience of industry specialists with a more formal academic approach, providing you with a practical perspective on today’s business sector.
