Overview

Baker University's Sports Administration major provides students with a background in sport and business. Students complete courses in facility planning, event management, communication studies, sports marketing, and sports law. Students who major in sports administration also earn a minor in business.

Overview

From backyard dreams to big stage glory, sports are a business tied to the emotions of millions. Sports are a means of participating in physical activity, building character, and learning lifelong lessons. In today’s world, however, that’s not all. Sports are a business. The sports industry must rely on coaches, administrators, marketing and finance professionals, and others to ensure the success and popularity of athletic programs, products, and services.

Internships with the NFL, NBA, and baseball teams in various leagues are common for Baker students, and grads have turned them into careers with the NFL, Daytona Speedway, and other premier organizations.
