The Sport and Recreation management degree will serve a growing industry in sport and recreation management. Many public entities, including public universities, cities and corporations are investing in recreational centers along with other civic event centers to serve diverse populations (seniors, children after school programs, etc.). The growth of these centers has spawned the development of community tourism events (i.e. heritage festivals) to add to the other attractions that were present in the area. The Sport and Recreation Management degree will provide students with the skills and background to work in these growing industries.
