The UCD School of Public Health, Physiotherapy and Sports Science MSc Sport Management programme has been ranked 14th in the world, up 6 places from last year’s rankings, in the 2024 SportBusiness Postgraduate Course Rankings. It is now ranked 4th in Europe, up from 6th place in 2023. 100% of alumni included in the survey are currently employed and the course is ranked 9th globally for return on investment.
Dr Tom Fabian, Director of the MSc Sport Management programme, said “It was brilliant to receive such glowing validation for our MSc programme. This is a testament to the efforts by our faculty and staff, students, and alumni. In the last couple of years, we have sought to internationalize our programme (with new staff, guest lecturers, and case studies from abroad), create stronger links with the Irish and European sports industries, and connect with our broad alumni network. Our graduates are well-placed to jump into the sports industry and come out with critical perspectives that serve them well in their careers. In effect, the rankings are simply validating what we already know: We provide a world-class programme that facilitates a multifaceted, diverse, and engaging student experience”.
The SportBusiness Postgraduate Rankings, founded in 2012, are generated based on two surveys, one completed by alumni who graduated three years ago, and the other by the academic leaders of the courses.
