The Master’s Degree in Sports Management and Legal Skills, from ISDE and Barça Innovation Hub, has been designed for graduates in Business Administration, Law and Economics, as well as for professionals from other fields who wish to develop their careers in the world of sports and professional athletes who, after having retired from competition, aspire to continue in the sports field as managers.
With a faculty made up of the most renowned professionals in the international sports world, this master’s degree provides the knowledge and skills necessary to become an excellent sports manager, with a solid legal foundation and an international vision of the sector.
The association with F.C. Barcelona, the club with the most sports areas, provides students with a broad and deep vision of all the subjects and to know them directly from the hands of those who work in them, at the highest level.
The Master’s includes an optional sports week in Switzerland, where you will visit UEFA headquarters and receive hands-on training at leading sports institutions and law firms, or choose a unique week of business and negotiation in New York City on the campus of Columbia University. Students will attend a graduation ceremony and cocktail reception on the last day. They will all receive a certificate of attendance.
