Bachelor of Sport and Recreation Management

The University of Notre Dame Australia

The University of Notre Dame Australia’s Bachelor of Sport & Recreation Management is a specialist degree that enables students to study the management of human and physical resources and facilities in the sport and recreation industries. You will gain a sound knowledge of the bio-physical, behavioural and socio-cultural foundations of sport and physical activities, combined with a range of management skills and knowledge necessary to work in various sports and recreation professions. At the University of Notre Dame Australia, we are dedicated to delivering a high-quality, ethical, and practical education that will prepare our graduates for a successful career in the sports and recreation industry. During this three-year degree, you will develop essential skills and knowledge in accounting, marketing, management and communication. In addition, you will also specialise in sport and recreation-specific content such as Events Management, Physical Activity and Health, Psycho-social Aspects of Sport and Physical Activity and The Australian Sports System.

This program is designed to give you the skills to manage recreation and sporting organisations and staff and to adapt and thrive in rapid and pervasive economic, social and technological change environments. You will also learn how to manage individual sporting and recreational agendas and, more broadly, oversee the community’s sports and recreational facilities and resources. Upon graduation, you will have the skills necessary for a management position in the sport and recreation sector - initially at the operational level and progressing through to senior management positions. This means you can work in various industries and areas, including player and recreation centre management, professional sporting clubs, sporting and recreation associations, and various government departments dealing with health and recreation.
