Time of Study
The Sport Management emphasis within the MA in Human Performance
or MS in General Human Environmental Sciences has been designed
to take two academic calendar years to complete, which may coincide
with graduate assistantship positions in the Athletics Department
and University Recreation. The availability of summer classes may
facilitate students being able to complete the academic course work
in 15 months. The program is designed to be accessible to students
who work full-time, with the majority of the classes being offered
in the evening.
