COURSE DESCRIPTION
Do you love the worlds of sports and recreation? If so, you’ve come to the right place. This double degree enables students to study the management of human and physical resources and facilities in the sport and recreation industries. They gain a sound knowledge of the bio-physical, behavioural and socio-cultural foundations of sport and physical activities, combined with a range of management and communication skills and knowledge necessary to work in various sport and recreation professions.
Why study this degree?
During this four-year degree you will develop essential skills and knowledge in the areas of accounting, marketing, management, and communication. In addition, you will cover sport and recreation-specific content such as Events Management, Physical Activity and Health, Psycho-social Aspects of Sport and Physical Activity and The Australian Sports System and Communications & Media content such as Media and Society, and Media Ethics and Law.
In particular, this program is designed to give you the skills to manage recreation and sporting organisations and staff, and to adapt and thrive in environments of rapid and pervasive economic, social and technological change. You will also learn how to manage an individual sporting and recreational agenda and, more broadly, how to oversee the community’s sport and recreational facilities and resources.
As part of our commitment to the delivery of ethical and practical knowledge, students are required to complete six industry practicum courses totalling 350 hours over the span of their degree. This provides students with valuable insights into sport and recreation industries, an opportunity for skills development and a chance to build networks within the industry.
By completing a degree in Communications & Media along with Sport & Recreation Management you will complement your management skills with the ability to communicate using a variety of platforms to reach a wide and diverse audience. The Bachelor of Communications & Media lets you explore the principles and techniques of communications and media by examining and creating print, non-print and multimedia texts, using traditional and new and emerging media technologies. You can tailor the program to meet your particular interest by majoring in Journalism, Film and Screen Production or Photography.
Upon graduation, you will have the skills necessary for a management position in the sport and recreation sector – initially at the operational level and progressing through to senior management positions. This means you have the opportunity to work in any number of industries and areas including player and recreation centre management, professional sporting clubs, sporting and recreation associations, and various government departments dealing with health and recreation.
