Overview
Whether you’re a sports enthusiast or professional athlete, at the beginning of your career or in the middle of it, a solo athlete or a team player – if you love sports and would like to turn your hobby into your profession, you've come to the right place. At the European Sports Management Academy (ESM-ACADEMY) you can complete the Sport Management degree in just one year.
From amateur sports enthusiasts to professional athletes, from up-and-coming talent to experienced leaders, from ice-hockey players to footballers – our team is as diverse as the sports industry itself. Our programme of studies is designed to be flexible enough to be adapted to any individual life path.
After our programme is over, you will receive a state-approved university certificate, which is evaluated with a total of 18 ECTS points. You can have these points credited if you would like to complete a bachelor's degree after our programme. This is possible, for example, at our partner university, the Allensbach University of Applied Sciences Constance (Allensbach University Konstanz). Here, too, there are no compulsory attendance dates, and you can follow the lectures either live or recorded.
