Beginning in Fall 2023, the University of West Florida will offer a new Master of Science in Administration with a specialization in sport administration. The graduate program will be offered fully online.
The master’s degree will prepare students for careers in the growing global sport market through business management fundamentals and sport-focused courses emphasizing marketing, analytics, emerging technologies, sustainability, wagering and esports.
The sport administration graduate program is guided by an advisory board of sport industry experts and focuses on applied experiential learning through internships, career coaching, career placement assistance and mentorships. Dr. Gil Fried, chair of the Administration and Law Department, developed the program and authored the sport analytic book used for it.
