Description

The number of undergraduate and graduate programs in sport management continues to increase as the sport industry continues to boom and grab the spotlight. In addition to the excitement of sports, the economic value of the sport industry is estimated to be $213 billion last year, twice as large as the automotive industry (The sports industry, n.d.). Sport management students find getting an internship and later a job to be increasingly competitive. A key to breaking into the sport business is a good field experience. How can sport management educators better prepare their students for successful field experiences? Field experience supervisors are looking for students to have the knowledge, skills and abilities to immediately contribute to their organizations. One of the answers lies in creating experiential learning within the classroom as students complete their coursework in preparation for field experiences.
