SM 4920 - Practicum in Sport and Recreation Management


This practical experience is designed to offer insight and experiential learning in a student’s area of interest, or to broaden a student’s understanding and exposure to various settings related to sport and recreation management. Students actively participate and assist in determining the placement setting, which may include: management of recreation and intramural programs, coaching, fitness center programming & management, facility management, event management, or numerous other related areas. Students taking this course will engage in hands‐on experiences supervised by a professional in the specific area of expertise, will establish personal learning objectives for the experience, will reflect and self‐assess on demonstrated skill development and the transferability of learned skills and concepts to future experiences. Students will work closely with the advisor and/or field experience faculty supervisor to determine an appropriate experiential opportunity which is consistent with the student’s goals and interests. It is strongly recommended that the sport and recreation management major enroll in the first field experience in the sophomore year. Prerequisites: SM 1510 , and permission of faculty supervisor. Variable credit (1‐4) May be repeated for credit with varying site experiences.
