During this four-year degree at The University of Notre Dame Australia, you will develop essential skills and knowledge in accounting, marketing, management, and communication. In addition, you will cover sport and recreation-specific content such as Events Management, Physical Activity and Health and The Australian Sports System and Communications & Media content such as Media and Society, and Media Ethics and Law.

This program is designed to give you the skills to manage recreation and sporting organisations and staff and to adapt and thrive in rapid and pervasive economic, social and technological change environments. You will also learn how to manage an individual sporting and recreational agenda and, more broadly, oversee the community’s sports and recreational facilities and resources.

As part of our commitment to delivering ethical and practical knowledge, students must complete six industry practicum courses totalling 350 hours over the span of their degree. This provides students with valuable insights into sports and recreation industries, an opportunity for skills development and a chance to build networks within the industry.
