Overview

Do you want to increase participation in sport and physical activity? Are you interested in helping a new generation of elite athletes achieve their goals at global events such as the Olympics? 

Based in СÀ¶ÊÓÆµ and St. Catherines, Ontario, Canada, this wide-ranging BSc (Hons) Global Sport Management degree course in collaboration with Brock University builds your understanding of sport and its role in global society. It covers the disciplines of human resource management, marketing, finance, events planning and strategy where you’ll learn how sports management can give people the opportunity to take part in sport and physical activity, regardless of their ability.

You’ll graduate with the knowledge, understanding and a solution focused approach that will prepare you for an exciting career in sports management, one of the biggest growing global leisure markets.
 

Why do a dual degree?

This course is a dual degree (also known as a double degree).

When you complete the course successfully, you'll have 2 degrees – one from the СÀ¶ÊÓÆµ and one from Brock University.

Dual degrees allow you to achieve 2 degrees in 3.5 or 4 years rather than 6 years.

You'll benefit from a global education experience and the high-calibre teaching expertise, latest research and modern facilities at two universities. You'll also develop a more comprehensive knowledge of communication and media than on a single degree and gain an understanding of different cultures, which will help you work more effectively with people from different backgrounds.

All of this will help you stand out in a competitive job market after you graduate.

You'll be based in СÀ¶ÊÓÆµ in years one and two, and for six months or a year at the end of the course. You'll spend year three in St. Catharines, Canada at .

You'll get support with travel arrangements, visas, finding accommodation and accessing loans and other funding that can help pay for your study and living costs when you're in Canada.

St. Catharines is located in the heart of the Niagara region, and is bordered by two Great Lakes. It's only an hour away from Toronto, while offering picturesque scenery and a thriving downtown.

This is a new course and we're finalising the detailed information for this page.
