Name, Image, and Likeness in Sport Minor

The minor in Name, Image, and Likeness in Sport introduces the emerging opportunity for individuals—especially athletes—to leverage their name, image, and likeness through marketing, promotional, and branding activities.

This included areas such as social media activities, endorsements of goods and services, autograph sessions and promotional appearances, business-building and entrepreneurial activities, and more. Important areas for coursework such as sport management, finance, law, and marketing are all included in the minor.

Coursework for the Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) in Sport minor includes sport-, business-, financial-, legal-, and marketing-related coursework offered in both The Lesley H. and William L. Collins College of Professional Studies and The Peter J. Tobin College of Business. NIL encompasses a large and growing number of opportunities, both for those offering and managing NIL activities (e.g., for-profit businesses, nonprofit organizations, and legal firms and representation), and those receiving and undertaking NIL opportunities (e.g., students, student-athletes, and athletes).
