Accelerated Master's Degree in Sport Management
This accelerated program lets undergraduate students begin taking graduate-level courses during their final years of undergrad, saving time and money while deepening expertise and advancing careers sooner.
Accelerated Master's Degree in Sport Management
Undergraduate Students at UM that are interested in graduate study in the Sport Management program can get a head start through the Accelerated Master's Degree Program.
Undergraduate students who would like to apply for the Accelerated Master's Degree Program must meet the following requirements:
- 3.0 minimum GPA
- 90 completed credit hours as an undergraduate
Number of credit hours a student can earn towards a graduate degree while completing their undergraduate studies:
- 12 credit hours
Courses undergraduate students in the Accelerated Master's Degree Program can take to earn credit towards their graduate degree:
- SA 511 Applied Statistics
- SM 500 Issues and Trends in Sport (can be taken up to three times as long as course topic differs)
- JOUR 589 Sports Television Production
- ES 542 Sports Psychology
Remember: Students who fail to reserve 500-level courses for graduate credit at the time they take the course will not receive graduate credit for the course (graduate level work must be completed to earn graduate credit).
- Reserving graduate credit with 500-level courses is required to ensure the Graduate School and instructor know the student must complete graduate credit requirements for the course.
- Students cannot later claim graduate credit for 500-level courses if they did not take the appropriate steps to notify the Graduate School prior to taking the course.
