PREPARING FOR A CAREER IN SPORT
Starting with their first semester on campus, students in the
Cortland Sport Management Program begin preparations for a career
in the sport industry. The program has a unique partnership with
Cortland's NCAA Division III athletic department that allows sport
management students to gain valuable hands-on experience through
event practicum courses (SPM 149, 249, 349). In addition, topics
such as resume development, interviewing skills and job etiquette
are taught in a pre-internship seminar (SPM 370) before students
embark on their senior internship.
