MBA IN SPORTS MANAGEMENT
About MBA in Sports Management
The purpose of this MBA degree is to prepare the next generation of sports organization leaders and reformers.Â
The sports industry is fast-paced, exciting, and full of diverse opportunities. Whether you’re an athlete or a non-athlete sports fanatic, a career in this exhilarating and competitive field can be uniquely fulfilling, and a specialized degree in sports management can help get you there. Hence there is a visible trend of growing interest towards this degree, which will make these individuals the most sought after in the ever-expanding global sports industry.Â
Â
Though an average professional athlete is likely to retire before 30 years of age, someone who is overlooking the critical aspect of management of sports can manage multiple athletes and continue operations for years to come. In addition to the few professional athletes and billions of viewers, what keeps the sports industry going efficiently is the management team that continues to drive the industry off the field, while taking care of the business side of sports.
Â
If you’ve been working in the sports industry, earning an MBA in Sports Management can significantly improve your skills, comprehension, networking, and value within the sports industry. It can upraise you to leadership roles and allow you to closely work with and even be a part of the C-suite. If you haven’t been working in sports, but have experience in an aspect of the field (like event management, communications, human resources, etc.) and a passion for sports, this degree could also be instrumental in making a shift in your career and expanding your job opportunities. You’ll delve into graduate business courses alongside a cornucopia of disciplines that sports leaders regularly practice.
Why choose MBA in Sports Management?
Flourishing independent industry offering Global mobility – The sports market is an independent multibillion-dollar industry expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 13.5% across the globe. The fact that the Olympics was safely conducted under the new age leadership of an excellent management team despite the disruption caused due to Covid-19 proves that the industry is thriving and will continue to flourish. Many careers in the sports industry involve traveling around the world, which could be a plus for those who like leading an active lifestyle.Â
Parlay your Passion into a Career – If you love sports but know that your chances of landing a spot-on a pro team are limited, you don’t have to give up on working in the industry you love. Taking a behind-the-scenes role might feel different at first, but you’ll find that working in sports management offers many of the same mental and emotional challenges as playing on a sports team. You’ll also enjoy working in one of the most vibrant and fun-filled industries in the world.
Opportunity to work with great talent and high-profile clients – A key to a long and successful career is working with great people, and the field of sports attracts those who have a shared passion. That’s not always the case in other industries. The sports industry draws some incredible talent and does so regularly. Whether it be on the community basketball court or a professional baseball league diamond, talent flows through the sporting industry from top to bottom. Imagine getting an opportunity to work with some of the biggest names in the sports industry!
Societal Connecting Point – One of the benefits of working in a field that other people are interested in is that you’ll connect with people of all races, income levels, educational backgrounds, religions, and national origins. That kind of life experience can lead to a more fulfilling career.
Rewarding career with diverse opportunities – According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), the median annual salary for a sports management role is $97,910 whereas the top 10% earn more than $1,89,420. This can vary based on specialization within the field, location, years of experience, and a variety of other factors. Sports management professionals enjoy a wide variety of career opportunities at professional sports organizations, private companies, and non-profit organizations ranging from marketing to representation.
