It is a challenge for sport, for its protagonists and for those who approach a complex world to become professionals: the Master’s Degree Course in “Sports Law and Sports Management” (University of Bari “Aldo Moro” – Academic Year 2023/2024) was born with this strong idea and a defined mission. The Master’s Degree Course in “Sports Law and Management” aims to train highly qualified professionals prepared to face the unique challenges present in the world of sport. The training programme is designed to provide advanced knowledge in the legal and management world of sport.
The course is designed for those who wish to develop a successful career in the sports industry, combining a sound understanding of legal issues with strategic management skills.
The main objectives of the programme include:
