BSc (Hons) Sport Management

Developed in consultation with industry bodies and commercial sport operators, Bournemouth University's BSc (Hons) Sport Management equips students with knowledge across sport, management, marketing, leadership, finance and business principles within a global context. The programme is aimed at undergraduates with a passion for the sports industry who want to develop into well-rounded leaders, and includes placement opportunities — either a six-week or a minimum 30-week industrial placement — to build practical experience and professional networks.

Delivered full-time on campus at Bournemouth University's Talbot Campus, the course runs for three years with a short placement or four years with an extended placement. It carries accreditation from the Club Managers Association of Europe (CMAE), the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB), and the Chartered Management Institute (CMI); the CMI accreditation means graduates receive a CMI Level 5 Certificate in Management and Leadership alongside their bachelor's degree. Teaching is delivered by senior academic staff, professional practitioners and research students, supplemented by regular guest lectures from industry.
