Sport and Business Studies Minor Overview

Working towards a sport and business studies minor will allow you to focus on the areas within the sport industry where concepts of sport management intersect with business management and administration. Managers of all types may help sport participants and organizations engage in any number of activities and programming by utilizing professional sport and business management skills programs. The Sport and Business Studies minor will offer you the opportunity to acquire knowledge and develop skills and attitudes for achieving entry-level and management positions within this large and varied industry setting.

Field Experience Opportunities

An undergraduate student should initiate a Change of Academic Program if they wish to add or remove a minor.

The student obtains a Change of Academic Program form from the Registrar's Office or the department of the new major/minor, secures the signature of the department chair/director (or dean) of any major/minor to be added, and returns the form to the Registrar's Office for processing.

A student must submit the completed form by the Thursday before priority registration if the change is to be made within the current semester. Unless granted a waiver by the department of the new major, the student must meet all current program requirements for graduation.

To apply to the University of Southern Indiana (USI) for undergraduate enrollment:

  • Complete the online application for admission
  • Pay the $40 application fee
  • Submit official transcripts from all high schools and colleges you've attended

Once USI has processed your application, transcript(s) and scores (if needed), a decision will be made by Undergraduate Admissions and you will receive a notification.

Upon acceptance to USI, you'll receive detailed information about next steps, including orientation, registration and housing.
