Sports is big business, and it is one of the fastest growing
industries in the United States Street & Smith’s Sports
Business Journal annual survey estimated the sports business
at $213 billion. It is far more than twice the size of the U.S.
auto industry and seven times the size of the movie industry.
International sports business is among the industry’s fastest
growing fields.
The MPS in Sport Management at St. John's is a natural
development of its long standing and successful undergraduate
program—one of the largest sport management programs in the
country. A unique feature of the undergraduate program has
been its international dimension, which has offered study abroad
and internship opportunities in Leicester, U.K., since 2000 and
most recently in Rome during the summer of 2009.
The
program is designed with two specializations, one in coaching
leadership and one in the international dimensions of sport.
Students take 21 credits in a common core and 18 credits in the
specialization.
