Why choose this program? Professional sports management is becoming increasingly complex. This integrated program combines a strong foundation in the physical and biomedical sciences with business and management studies, giving you a thorough understanding of both exercise science and the governance of sport. Some people say that Australian life revolves around sport whether it is one of the football codes, swimming, basketball, hockey, track and field, golf, surfing, cricket or netball. You name it, we are probably interested in it. Sport has always been a central feature of the social and cultural aspects of life in Australia and given our interest in it, sport management has become big business. If you are interested in sport - and let us face it, you probably are - a career in sport management might be just for you. Do not think you have to be a sporting star to succeed in sport management - some of the best managers in sport never played a game of anything in their life. What you need is specialist knowledge of the industry backed up by a sound grounding in business skills. Youll get all that and more through this degree’s sport management and business courses which are supplemented by either the work-integrated learning practicum or a minimum of 250 hours of relevant industry experience. The result is that you will graduate with all the skills necessary to succeed in sports management - all you have to do then is give 110%!  Motion analysis, risk factors and rehabilitation applications are studied in the state-of-the-art biomechanics lab.
