The program was ranked third out of more than 600 graduate-level programs worldwide. SportBusiness International’s Postgraduate Sports Course Rankings, which compiled the rankings, is the only internationally recognized annual review of the world’s top university-level sports management courses.

“When I look at the Top 25 list and see the programs that we are in the same company with, I find it amazing to see how far we as a program have come in 16 years,” said James Riordan, Ph.D., director of FAU’s MBA in Sport Management. “I’m very proud of our alumni who perform at the highest standard each and every day.”

FAU sport management alumni have gone on to have careers with the Miami Dolphins, ESPN, Florida Panthers, Dallas Cowboys, Miami Heat, New York Yankees, Juventus FC, the Miami Marlins and numerous university athletic departments.
