Course Overview
Our program is the first of its kind. The University of South Carolina is the first major University to create a separate department for the study of sport and entertainment with a solid business curriculum. From managing sponsorship sales to coordinating VIP guest experiences to booking the next season's entertainment, there are a broad range of roles and responsibilities that contribute to making every sport and entertainment event successful, and every venue profitable. And for a professional like you, it all comes down to creating the best overall experience for fans, clients and partners. Two work experiences are required as part of your degree program ' one that will occur during or after your sophomore year, and the second at the end of your academic career. Although you will learn and apply networking skills constantly throughout your Sport and Entertainment Management experience, the internship and practicum experiences afford you an opportunity to apply them for extended periods in challenging, real world settings.
