In a 16-month period the MSc in Sports Industry Management program will give you the opportunity to study the sports and outdoor industry within an international framework, and help you build a strong career in this highly coveted sector.
The program is divided into three time periods, during which students get to study in Lyon (France), the Alps (France), and on EMLYON’s Asian Campus in Shanghai. From learning how to apply management knowledge specifically to the sports and outdoor industry, to getting deeply involved with a business project, students will graduate with all the necessary skills and knowledge to build a successful career.
What will you study?
Each part of the program has its own set of courses, giving students a wide perspective on the industry and its career possibilities.
In order to acquire the right management tools from the start, students of the MSc in Sports Industry Management first study the fundamentals of international management in Lyon through the module ‘The Global Issues of Management in a Multi-Cultural Environment’.
Once students arrive in the Alps, they get a different perspective on the industry thanks to many company visits, expert lectures and specialist workshops. This is a great opportunity for students to start building a professional network and get a deeper look into their future career.
The last part of the programme, taking place at EMLYON’s Asian Campus in Shanghai, helps students gain more practical and international experience. The ‘Business and the Sports and Outdoor Industry in Asia’ module allows students to gain first-hand experience of turning an idea into a tangible project, while understanding the dos and don’ts of the Chinese market.
