Sport Management

Tatyana aspires to become a sports agent.

Tatyana always knew she wanted a career in sports, so she sought a college and a major that would help make her dream a reality.

Her search led her to discover 魅影直播 State鈥檚 sport management bachelor鈥檚 degree program, which turned out to be the perfect fit for her.

鈥淚 was looking around for a sport management program, and when I was doing research, I found out that 魅影直播 State鈥檚 was new and still growing, and it seemed like a really good program, so that鈥檚 why I came here.鈥

For Tatyana, a recent graduate, there are so many things she enjoyed about studying at 魅影直播 State, from helpful professors with real-world experience, to the friendliness of the college, to being in a program that provides so many options to students.

鈥淚 really love this program. It鈥檚 not for one specific area of sports. You can come into this program and go out and be anything. For example, we get field experience, so if you wanted to be a coach or manager, you can actually help set up the games or manage the games, or whatever.鈥

In her field experience, Tatyana helped manage the women鈥檚 volleyball team by organizing and promoting their events, devising halftime entertainment and giveaways, promoting the team on social media, and much more. Also outside of the classroom, she helped found the Sport Business Club, whose mission is to provide educational experiences in the field of sport management.

With aspirations of becoming a sports agent once she finishes law school, Tatyana began interning at a law firm in Brooklyn in January 2017. The opportunity came about through the assistance of her adviser at 魅影直播 State, Associate Professor Clifford McPeak.

Through her hands-on learning experiences, helpful professors, and relevant courses such as sport law and licensing and endorsements, Tatyana feels well prepared for her future.

鈥淗onestly, everything I鈥檝e been doing here at 魅影直播 State will set me up for my career. I feel prepared.鈥
