Human Performance Dance & Recreation
Sports Marketing
The Kinesiology - Sports Marketing Track allows the student to pursue an occupation or graduate school in an exercise based marketing profession. Successful completion of the degree requirements and appropriate filing of paperwork will allow a student to receive Major in Kinesiology with a Minor in Sports Marketing. The Sports Marketing Minor is controlled by the College of Business.
As a final degree requirement, students will perform a 12 credit internship program. The internship is the culmination of the student's education and is designed to allow the student to "apply" their knowledge. Students perform their internships in many places around the country and in some cases internationally. The 12 credit internship requires 450 hours (30 hours a week) at a facility which is agreed upon by the Program Director and/or Departmental Internship Coordinator. There are several requirements which must be met prior to beginning this experience. This internship is generally performed during a student's final semester of study.
Students interested in becoming a Kinesiology Major should first meet with the College of Education Advising Office located in Room 101, O'Donnell Hall. Further questions can be directed to the Department of Human Performance Dance and Recreation in the Activity Center Room 204 or by calling 575-646-2215.
