Educ Leadership - Athletic Administration

Program Mission Statement

The mission of the program is to provide our students with the critical athletic administration curriculum and skill sets to be competitive for leadership positions within the sport industry. Our geographic location, as well as our positive relationships in the sport industry provides optimal conditions for student success. We are committed to providing our students access to the most contemporary research, technologies, and transformational learning opportunities available. This is accomplished through the completion of a required practicum, as well as other opportunities to engage in meaningful community-based transformational learning (CBTL) initiatives. Such experiences, coupled with the knowledgeable instruction of our faculty, allow our students to differentiate themselves from students in other programs. We are committed to meeting the needs of the sport/athletic community and on the creation of meaningful practical and theoretical research which equips our students for success in a competitive industry.
