The sport management minor at USI provides you with the opportunity to be exposed to a variety of different sport settings such as intercollegiate athletics, recreational sports, sport communication, sport business and professional sport. The main emphasis of the sport management minor is to introduce you to the foundations of marketing, facility management, legal issues, finance and public relations as it relates to sport. All of your sport management courses will be taught by experienced faculty with extensive sports management industry experience.
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.
