SPMG 8112 - Internship, 12 Credits

Level: Upper

A work experience designed to assist the student in making the transition from the classroom to a segment of the sport management field. The internship permits a degree of independence and an element of learning that is not possible in a conventional classroom. The intent of the internship is to provide each student with an experiential learning opportunity as a pre-professional in sport management. Students will complete supervised field work in a sport management segment, that segment to be determined mutually by the Internship Coordinator and the student. Each student will have a planned program of educational objectives approved by the student, Site Supervisor, and Internship Coordinator. A written paper, and a public, oral presentation, along with a journal of work activities and experiences, will be required. The final grade will be determined by the Internship Coordinator and the Site Supervisor.
