Introduction
Sports isn’t all about the athletes, coaches, and competition. It’s also about business. Every sport and athletic enterprise needs people with business skills so at ONU your sports management degree will be a business degree.

You’ll assist with promotions, media relations, and facility management for our 23 NCAA Division III varsity teams. You’ll have the chance to get involved in professional organizations and attend regional and national conferences. You’ll go on road trips and complete an internship. You’ll build skills and confidence and figure out where you excel and what you’re passionate about.
Internships

Student Organizations
Join a professional organization and you'll learn about opportunities in your field and meet new people or conduct research with a faculty member.
