In the first year of the Master in Sport Management, the aim is to train directly operational and high-potential managers, capable of implementing and adapting managerial methods and tools to the professional realities of sports organisation in all sectors of the profession.

Professional insertion is reinforced by a work placement for a minimum of 4 months (eligible for a professional insertion contract and apprenticeship).
These managers are able to integrate private and public for-profit and non-profit organisations.

3 professional sectors are targeted in particular:

• Manufacturing and Distribution of Sports Goods (IDAS)
• Amateur and Professional Clubs (CAP)
• Sport Tourism and Leisure (TLS)
The event management sector is cross-disciplinary.

MASTER YEAR 1

The course is taught over two semesters. The first semester involves an intense volume of study; the second semester takes place in work-study mode based on a professional placement involving three weeks in work and one week at the university.

This course organisation is facilitated by e-learning materials.
Two programmes are available: In the 1st year of the master, all teaching units in both semesters (i.e. 60 ECTS) are common to both programmes: MOS and MPSI (research). This enables students interested in research to also acquire more professionally-oriented knowledge, thereby facilitating their professional insertion and potential change of career plan.

MASTER YEAR 2

The course is taught over two semesters. The first semester is characterised by 7 weeks of intensive study; the second semester is characterised by 3 weeks of intensive study combined with implementation in a professional situation.

The compulsory 5-month work placement in the same structure may begin at start of the academic year, once the placement agreement is signed and the academic and professional tutors appointed.

Students acquire scientific, managerial and sporting skills.
