Sport Management

Make Your Mark with a Concentration or Minor in Sport Management from Northern Vermont University

The sport management programs at Northern Vermont University prepare you for a career in the ever-expanding sports industry — a growing $213 billion-a-year industry in the United States alone. You’ll receive a comprehensive education in the business and administration of athletics, sports, and recreation. Courses provide a solid foundation in ethical leadership, governance, law, finance, marketing, facility design, resource management, and event planning.

NVU’s sport management programs recognize that sports today are as much about marketing events and refining a brand as they are about working with players and scheduling events — and that strong business skills are required for a successful career in the field. Career opportunities range from managing professional teams and arenas to overseeing the marketing and finances of sports groups.

Students at both NVU-Lyndon and NVU-Johnson can earn a B.S. degree in business administration with a concentration in sport management. NVU-Lyndon also offers a minor in sport management.
