The sports market is a multibillion-dollar industry, experiencing rapid expansion in regions such as China, Russia, Brazil and the Middle East. The industry offers diverse and dynamic opportunities to graduates, ranging from professional sports to managing events and corporate sponsorship. Professionals who want to work in this field require an increasingly specialized skill set. This program prepares students to meet these challenges through courses in sports marketing and management, and financial management as applied to sport and sponsorship.
Additional Qualifications
While completing your MBA (título propio) program, you have the opportunity to earn a second distinct qualification: a U.K. state-recognized degree from London Metropolitan University (London Met) in the U.K. You may choose to study an MSc in International Business Management or an MBA. To earn both degree titles, you will study in a hybrid learning environment.
In order to obtain the state-recognized MBA, you must complete an extra management learning and research module, a business research report and a business competency simulation course. To earn the MSc in International Business Management, you must complete an extra business consultancy project module and a business competency simulation course.  These courses are in addition to the MBA (título propio) coursework. 
The London Met MSc in International Business Management program is designed for aspiring professionals with less than two years of work experience, while the London Met MBA is for working professionals and those who have previously held managerial roles.
Both qualifications can be earned in one year of full-time study or two years of part-time study.
