Advisory Board
To assist the faculty with program development generally, and
to specifically provide insight on curriculum development and internship
experiences, a sport management advisory board was formed. The advisory
board provides the faculty with feedback about program development
and contemporary sport industry issues during regular conference
calls and an annual meeting. The first annual advisory board meeting
and social is planned for April 30, 2005. It is anticipated that
this will provide our students with an excellent opportunity to
learn from and network with successful sport management practitioners.
