Course summary

Level 6 Entry onto the BA (Honours) Sports Business Management degree is specifically designed to create a pathway that allows graduates from the 3-year Sports Management diploma, taught at certain Ontario colleges, to complete a Bachelor’s degree in just one further academic year.

In order to be able to offer this, we have scrutinised the Ontario Sports Management diploma program and are satisfied that it meets the prior learning requirements in order to allow this pathway.

Students joining Hartpury via this route will undertake an undergraduate dissertation (research project), as well as choosing from further modules which include Strategic Management, Sponsorship and Brand Development, The Impact of Sports Events, People, Leadership and Change, Sport and Social Media and Project Management. For more information regarding the modules please refer to our BA (Hons) Sports Business Management page.

Modules

You’ll improve your research and personal development skills through two compulsory modules. One requires you to undertake a research project of your choice, with the other focusing on improving your employability skills, ready for the sports industry. A wide range of optional modules give you the chance to really focus on the areas that interest you most, and to best suit your career goals. Optional modules can include: People, Leadership and Change, Strategic Management, The Impact of Sports Events, Sport and Social Media, Sport Sponsorship and Brand Development and Project Management in Action.
