St. Clair College and Brock U sign agreement to open doors for sport management students

Students at St. Clair College who want to start a career in sports management can now get a degree from Brock University more easily.

St. Clair College and Brock University formalized an agreement to facilitate the transfer of students interested in pursuing a Bachelor of Sport Management degree.

Eligible students will receive eight transfer credits, reducing the amount of time it takes to earn a degree.

"This new pathway will connect transfer students with the industry and classroom expertise that has helped Brock graduates find success in all areas of sport," said Chair of Brock's sport management department, Professor Curtis Fogel. "Harnessing their knowledge from both St. Clair and Brock, students will develop the skills necessary to not only enter but thrive in this competitive field upon graduation."

Students can pursue careers in operations, recruitment, athlete performance analysis, marketing, communications, and event planning.
