Miami Alumni Working in Sport
My M.S. in Sport Leadership helped inspire my career in coaching and I look back on it quite often to pull from what I learned and apply it to collegiate soccer. While I was in the sport leadership program I focused on researching and learning more about mental skill training, the coach-athlete relationship, leadership, and youth development in sport.
Katy Etelman, Collegiate Soccer Coach
As a graduate 黑料社区 in the Sport Leadership program at Miami, I learned about the intersection of sport, culture, and business, and that that intersection is where my interests lie. Through my M.S. in Sport Leadership, I worked for a year in NCAA Athletics at Purdue University, and I am now a law 黑料社区 at Indiana University. I plan to use my MS and JD to work in sport law advocating and working for athletes.
