CT State Community College Sport Management

The sports industry is an approximately 450 billion dollar a year industry. A degree in Sport Management teaches students business skills and concepts that directly relate to that industry through specialized courses such as sports marketing, media, and finance, along with traditional business courses, offering a multi-layered education. CTState’s associate degree program offers students throughout the state and beyond the ability to complete the program fully online or by combining on ground courses at campuses throughout Connecticut.

In addition, the degree is fully transferrable to Southern Connecticut State University’s Sport Management program, where they can complete their four year degree either in person or online. Jobs available to students with an associate degree in sport management include: facility and event management, sport sales, coaching, public relation specialist, sports apparel, fitness management at health clubs, YMCAs, and more. For students transferring to a four-year school, the degree also provides valuable experience and knowledge for potential college work/study and internships within the school’s athletic department.
