Sport Management at the Gdańsk University of Physical Education and Sport (AWFiS) is a two-year, full-time master’s programme with a practical profile, taught in English. It is designed for graduates who want to build a career on the business and organisational side of sport.
The programme focuses on work in the sport industry: managing sport organisations and teams, managing sport infrastructure and organising sport events. Graduates are prepared to work both with professional athletes and with everyone else who practises sport. Classes are run by researchers, specialists in the relevant fields and coaches of national teams.
The emphasis is on how sport actually functions in practice. Students learn to manage different types of sport organisations, design and build a sports brand, choose and implement marketing activities, organise sponsorship and use public relations tools, as well as to set up independent business and social initiatives in sport. This combination of sport and management sets the programme apart from both a general sport degree and a management and marketing degree.
Graduates use a foreign language at B2 level of the Common European Framework of Reference. They also master specialist vocabulary, so they can communicate confidently in their professional field.
