UMass Boston's Sport Leadership and Administration Program is designed to equip students with the skills and knowledge necessary to be effective, transformative, and equity-minded leaders of social change through sport. Students engage in the study of the phenomenon of sport from a variety of theoretical lenses based on the liberal arts (historical, anthropological, sociological, psychological/developmental, and economic). This program is designed to provide students with coursework in leadership and management.

 

Students in the Sport Leadership and Administration Program participate in experiential learning opportunities that help them both apply what they have learned through classwork and actualize their leadership potential. Through a multi-pronged approach, UMB send students out into a variety of sport industry jobs and career paths fully prepared to succeed as leaders.
