The academic support provided in terms of both infrastructure and staff has been commendable. The lecturers are very knowledgeable and were able to facilitate meaningful discussions in the classroom. They were open to questions and very patient with explaining complex concepts.
Career networking facilities were also very instrumental in my growth at Loughborough University as it provided me with plenty of opportunities to hone my talent and skill sets. The sports facilities also helped to maintain balance with academics and physical activity during the degree programme.
I plan to expand my career in the sports marketing and sales domain after graduation. The module on sports marketing has developed my interest in the area and complemented my prior work experience. The project reports for the modules taught during the degree have taught me to apply concepts learnt to real life situations and this has paved the way for a successful career in sports marketing post-graduation.
My advice to anyone considering this course would be to be open to learning and experiencing new things. MSc Sport Management is an intense degree programme but is very relevant to today’s sports industry. Use the lectures as an introduction to the topic and spend time researching the subject to understand the industry better.
