Program Overview
Sports Management
This sports management summer program in Milan runs for two weeks and is designed for students aged 15 to 18. Discover how the business of sport really works, inside two of the industries Italy leads the world in: football and motorsport. Over two weeks, students go behind the commercial engine of professional sport: how a top football club and a professional racing team are financed, how players and drivers are contracted, sponsored and turned into global brands, and how championships and events are built and sold.
Taught by faculty who work inside leading sports organizations, with an HQ visit to a top Serie A club and behind-the-scenes access at a live GT race weekend. The program is based in Milan, home turf of both industries: Serie A football and the €12.4bn Motor Valley, home to 188 racing teams.
Why This Matters
