Other information

Due to the rapid expansion of the sport industry, there is an increasing demand for management professionals who can deliver sports services to all sectors of the community. There is a need for sports managers who have an understanding of the specialist context in which sport is played and organised, and the knowledge and skills necessary to effectively manage in a volatile economic, political, social and legal environment.

The Sport Management program offers a combination of core and elective subjects designed to provide specific training in sport management, including: sport marketing, accounting practices, sport and the law, public relations management, event and facility management, and research methods. It also provides the theoretical knowledge needed to understand the changing nature of the Australian sport environment.
