This program addresses the pressures that contemporary sport managers face when having to deal with their core obligations, which are to, implement sport programs that are financially and operationally sustainable, deliver them in such a way that they provide value-for-money experiences for participants, and lead to socially responsible outcomes, and, finally, ensure they are underpinned by values that privilege trustworthiness, fair play, transparency, and integrity. The program will combine cutting-edge theory with intensive case analysis, teach best-practice strategic management, and give students the opportunity to undertake professional-level research that can lead to doctorate level studies.
