Sport, Hospitality & Fashion

At first glance, the worlds of sports, fashion, and hospitality may seem unrelated, but a closer examination finds that each area offers countless career opportunities—not just on the field of play, the runway, or in the penthouse suite—but behind the scenes, as well.

Why St. John's

St. John’s is in New York City, home to 10 major league sports franchises, as well as the headquarters of Major League Baseball, Major League Soccer, National Basketball Association, National Football League, National Hockey League, and the United States Tennis Association. Our Sport Management majors learn from dedicated and experienced faculty and immerse themselves in the business of sports through internships, guest speakers, and alumni in the field.

For St. John’s students interested in making connections in the world of fashion, there are few cities that compare to New York, which, along with London, England; Milan, Italy; and Paris, France, make up fashion’s “Big 4.” Our faculty work closely with students to ensure that they enter this trillion-dollar industry with the skills and business sense they need to make an impact.

New York City is also a global destination for tourists, business leaders, government officials, and others—making it a remarkable place to learn about the worlds of hospitality, food and beverage, tourism, and event management.
