Return to {$returnto_text} Return to: Sorrell College of Business

(120 Hours)

A major portion of the student’s first and second year studies is a common curriculum called the General Studies Program. General studies courses may not be used in meeting requirements from both the General Studies Program and the requirements for a major or minor. Students must complete a six hour sequence in Literature or history.

Sport Management majors must earn a grade of C or better in all major courses for credit toward graduation. If a student earns a D or F in any major course, he/she must repeat that course. Faculty within the School of Hospitality, Sport and Tourism Management believe the practical experience gained through an internship is essential to the student’s education and professional growth. Therefore, all undergraduate students seeking a Bachelor of Science in Sport Management are required to complete an internship.

All students earning a Bachelor of Science in Sport Management are required to select one 18-hour minor. This minor may be housed in the School of Hospitality, Sport and Tourism Management which includes Beverage Management, ESPORT Management, Event Management, Hospitality Management, Sport Management, Tourism Management, or a minor outside the School.
