High Performance Sport

The High Performance Sport minor focuses on management aspects within the high performance sports. You will learn in an environment that strives for excellence. Subjects include Sport Policy and Governance, Sport Marketing, Sport Media, and Sport Law. You will understand how high performance sport federations and commercial organisations are managed. You will also learn how to manage a team of high performance athletes and staff.

The programme gives insight into the lives of top athletes and what it means to compete at the highest level. You will engage in practical assignments similar to real-world high performance sports work. You need to be ambitious and ready to work beyond a regular 9-to-5 schedule. This minor helps you answer: 'What does it take to manage and lead in high performance sports?'
