Modules

The Global Sport Industry and the Media

This module will introduce you to globalisation with specific focus on sports media and the global sports industry. Key concepts will be explored via globally mediated flows of sport events, sport commodities, and sport agencies and organisations. You will learn about how the media drives the sports economy and the consequences of this dynamic, such as shifts in the roles of fans from citizens to consumers, the rise of sports mega-events, gambling, corruption and performance-enhancing drug taking.
Who Runs Sport?

Understanding why sport is structured and organised in the way it is has become the most important factor for anyone thinking of developing a career in sport. This module will introduce you to issues of governance, government, policy initiatives, funding and media coverage. Content includes a view of the relationships between sport and sports coaching, sport and health/physical activity, sport and physical education, the sources of funding for sport and why sport is such 'big business'.
Finance and Economics for Sport Management

This module focuses on economic and financial knowledge, on the business environment and on the theory and practice of financial management in sport business organisations. You will be introduced to basic economic and financial concepts that underpin the analysis and interpretation of the business environment, the construction and presentation of key financial and economic data, and how to analysis and use such data in the management of sport business organisations.
Introduction to Sport Business Management

This module will introduce you to the underlying principles, theoretical concepts and practical issues associated with managing the business of sport. Using a stakeholder-based approach, you will look at business structures, ownership, external environment and commercial characteristics of sport business.
Sport Events

Consumers as a consequence of the continued commercialisation of sport, have ever-increasing expectations. This has resulted in intense competition for attendance, spectators and membership. Sport business managers must understand the needs of their consumers and provide commercially viable high levels of customer satisfaction. This module will provide you with an understanding of the theories of service delivery, quality revenue and expenditure management. You will translate this knowledge into practice through organising and running a sport event.
Preparing for the World of Sport

This module will support you in the transition to academic study at university. You will be encouraged to take responsibility for, and reflect upon your own learning, development and employability. You will be given support to develop the skills needed to produce high quality academic work. This module will also introduce you to research skills and practices used to investigate sport as well as raising awareness of careers information and services.

Where health course includes a placement
- UK students – travel costs which are over and above your daily journey to university and dual accommodation costs may be reimbursed by the NHS learning support fund.
- Overseas students are not covered by the NHS scheme, this means that any additional travel or accommodation costs for this course will be your responsibility. Travel to placement may be up to 90 mins each way/ travel on public transport at peak time cost, and you may incur additional accommodation and living costs if staying away from your usual home base for the length of your placement.

Course books are available from the university but you may wish to budget up to £100 if buying your own copies.
In sport courses, UK-based field trips are available in some option modules in the final year. You do not have to take these option modules to complete the degree programme. Where a field trip is present costs are covered but you are expected to make a contribution towards food. Typically this is £50.
For sports courses which require a placement, you’ll be expected to pay for your living costs and travel. Physical Education (QTS teacher training) students can claim travel costs to their school placement.
The school runs a number of day trips which students do not pay for. There may be some food and drink costs and you should budget around £30 per year.

Student views

Joe Osborn

"I spent a thoroughly enjoyable three years on the Eastbourne campus studying Sport Management.

"In designing the course they really appreciated the skills needed in order to excel in the professional environment. Rather than just submitting essays, a dissertation and completing exams, we were also assessed via a placement, presentations and reflective practice.

"Everyone at the university is one big team and everyone wants you to succeed. When looking for a job I received a priceless amount of help from the lecturers and made the most of the university’s careers services.

"I was lucky to receive two job offers before I finished my course and took up a role with ISS, a facilities management company, and my course fitted in perfectly to the job.

"I grew up wanting to be a footballer, which unfortunately remained a dream, but at present I can honestly say it has been one of the best choices I have made in my life to date."

Jaebeom Kim

“I never thought of myself as a proactive person before university but during my whole academic years I really blossomed in that area. It also gave me an important insight into other perspectives, broadening my horizons and encouraging people to develop diverse opinions and ideas.

“My degree focused on not only learning the fundamentals, but also on the practical application. Having a placement was extremely valuable and it benefited me. I increased understanding and awareness of the work environment, accelerated personal maturity, self-awareness and the ability to articulate skills and achievements. When I started my career, the placement experiences helped me a lot.

“I am currently working at football agency called TI Sports cooperation in Korea. TI Sports is a professional football agency providing sportsperson representation for footballers. My main job is to concentrate on arranging transfers, media-related matters and sponsorship opportunities. Furthermore, I actively participate in discovering gifted youth players and promotion their growth in order to contribute to enrich the industry.”

Joe Curry

"Studying at the University of Brighton has been a once in a life time experience for me. I have had the chance to be taught by some of the most experienced professors and theorists in their respective fields of study, and had chance to take part in life changing events. It has helped me see life in a different way and opened my mind to ideas I would have never thought of.

"I spent my placement with Sport Brighton from March until early June. It was based around two main functions of the organisation: the operational and the event sides. I worked in two main campuses, Eastbourne and Falmer, but I also attended the other campuses for events.

"During the placement I was taught about the organisation’s systems, helped with managerial functions and given certain tasks which would have been carried out by the shift managers and senior recreational assistants. I also took part in and helped run the main sport event for the year, which was the Colour Run, run by the Park Life staff of Sport Brighton. This included tasks such as helping to plan the route, planning the actual event and event promotion.

"The placement placed the theory I learned into action. It let me have an insider’s look of being a manager of a leisure and sport organisation in the best way possible. It was a very useful part of the course, and helpful to gain real life experience."

Tim Cetinich

“For my placement I worked at Football 4 Peace International (F4P), which is an activity-based community relations and reconciliation initiative that brings people together through a variety of sports.

“I was tasked with several projects ranging from organising different events such as the Easter Challenge Camp and the F4P v Homophobia event in partnership with Sussex Downs College (now East Sussex College Group), to coordinating with F4P coaches to work on projects and creating a new coaching kit for the F4P staff.

“I was given the opportunity to go to Berlin to meet with key sport academics at the Humboldt University as well as attending The Commonwealth Secretariat celebration of the second International Day of Sport for Development and Peace. Luckily I was also able to take part in the F4P project in The Gambia and the project in The Republic of Korea.

“Throughout my placement I gained wider knowledge and experience in the world of sport for development and peace, which enabled me to understand how the business and management elements of a charity organisation work. This then improved and developed many transferable skills that will be crucial in the future.

“Through the opportunities given to me during my placement, I was able to increase my skills that relate to the sport industry. Whether through managing different teams for different events, coordinating with sport retail companies to reach an agreement on kit packages or organising an event, the transferable skills gained will help me immensely in the future.”

Kelly Smith

“For my placement I worked within the operations department of Equity Travel, supporting sports tours around Europe. I put together itineraries for upcoming trips, analysed feedback to identify areas for improvement and accompanied a group on their trip as their Equity representative to ensure it ran smoothly.

“I gained a tremendous amount of knowledge and experience of the travel and sport travel market. I grew to understand how a business works and constantly changes, and also developed transferable skills in verbal and written communication.

“When it comes to placements, you definitely get out what you put in. The skills and knowledge I developed helped me to gain a full-time role and I now work for Equity Travel as their customer service manager.”
