Diploma of Business and Sports Management (Higher Education)
Federation University Australia, Ballarat, VIC, Australia
About this program
The Diploma of Business and Sports Management (Higher Education) combines eight subjects that bridge core business skills with specialised sports-industry knowledge, aimed at students wanting to manage people, build networks and lead teams in a sporting career. Small class sizes give students more one-on-one time with lecturers, and a partnership with Melbourne City Football Club gives the course a direct industry link. It is designed as a shorter higher-education qualification that still builds genuine business acumen for the sports sector.
