Bachelor of Sport and Recreation Management
Lincoln University's Bachelor of Sport and Recreation Management degree, developed with the assistance of employers, recognises the need for graduates to possess applied skills in sport and recreation management, together with skills in critical thinking and demonstrated academic competency.
You will study core courses that provide a broad understanding of sport and recreation theory and practice, event planning and recreation policy.
You'll also take Lincoln's core University-wide courses to put your learning in the wider context of the land-based sectors, land use, communities and economies.
You can then choose electives to complement the degree.
Lincoln has established a track record for meeting the demands of many professional, industrial and employer agencies working in sport and recreation management.
