Introduction
International sponsorship and corporate competition have transformed sports into a multibillion-euro industry.

This field requires professionals with specific sports management skills combined with deep business and financial understanding. Students acquire specific skills to meet the challenges of this competitive environment through courses in negotiation, sponsorship, and broadcasting, among others.
