CENTER FOR SPORTS ADMINISTRATION

The Center for Sports Administration, which supports Ohio University's Masters in Sports Administration and Facility Management, is considered one of the top academic programs in the field. We are proud to have earned this reputation which is a reflection of the courses, internships and other resources we make available to our students -- as well as reflecting the quality of our alumni who are working in the field.

Our academic activities are built on developing the critical skills, attitudes and knowledge identified by real-world practitioners. We depend upon our alumni and our advisory boards to ensure our offerings are relevant. The certificate course in sports ticketing sales, which  we are offering through this portal, results from such conversations about real-world needs and issues.
