Why study Sports Studies?
Sports studies provides you with an understanding of the sport and leisure industries from sociological, historical, economic and psychological perspectives. You will undertake courses in the social science and humanities areas of the study of sport as well as courses relating to the sociology of sport. The growth in the sport, physical activity and health industries over the past two decades has created a range of employment opportunities in the areas of social policy, journalism, management, marketing, planning and development, education, and psychology. Sports Studies graduates currently hold leadership positions with State and national sporting teams, the media and arts, as well as international sporting organisations working in the areas such as sports coaching, sports development and sports management and administration. In addition, this program creates a strong foundation for a research pathway.
