FIU Business has introduced a\u00a0Professional MBA Online in Sports Management<\/a>\u00a0developed in partnership with\u00a0Real Madrid Graduate School\u00a0– Universidad Europea (EURM UE).<\/p>\n

The program begins March 2021 and is designed to prepare graduates to successfully and responsibly manage sports institutions in a fast-changing landscape internationally. It will cover finance, marketing, management, human resources, entrepreneurship, competitive strategy, analytics, information systems and operations.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are delighted to jointly deliver a unique program that combines our highly-regarded Professional Online MBA program with the prestigious Executive MBA in Sports Management program of the Real Madrid Graduate School at Universidad Europea,\u201d said Joanne Li, dean of FIU\u2019s College of Business. \u201cThis partnership articulates our vision of optimizing resources to effectively prepare students to pursue exciting careers in the new economy.\u201d<\/p>\n

The 17-month fully online program will include nine courses from FIU Business and five from EURM UE, a top-ranked graduate school for sports programs internationally. Students will learn about sports management models and their implementation from 10 Real Madrid C.F. executives plus others from various sports institutions will collaborate with the sports management program. Also, at an additional cost, students who successfully complete the sixth optional finance course qualify to earn the\u00a0Executive MBA in Sports Management from EURM UE, earning two degrees from FIU and EURM UE.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis agreement is part of an international orientation at Universidad Europea, framed within the International Strategic Plan for 2020 which we hope will enable us to advance our business towards powerful markets such as the USA and to continue growing sustainably,\u201d said Bel\u00e9n Mari\u00f1o, international director of Universidad Europea.<\/p>\n

Students in the program will have the opportunity to participate in a residency in Madrid where they will visit the headquarters of the Real Madrid C.F. professional soccer club, network with sports executives and attend masterclasses.<\/p>\n
