At UCFB Wembley we are proud to be a market leader in Higher Education, dedicated to the delivery of university degrees in the strategic business facets of the football and sports industries. We have developed a profile of pioneering postgraduate qualifications to enable those working within the industry to drive forward their career, and to provide a gateway for those aspiring to pursue their ambitions of working in this exciting global multi-billion pound market sector.
UCFB is excited to announce the launch of our Masters suite of programmes this autumn, commencing with our world-class MA in Sport Management.
As with all of our programmes, our MA Sport Management will be taught by leading figures in football business and sports academia, within the inspirational learning environment of Wembley Stadium, overlooking the iconic pitch to motivate and enthuse you. Our students will have the opportunity to hear from and work with leaders from the industry, and develop specific interests through a research dissertation.
UCFB holds high quality standards for all its programmes, ensuring a reputation for delivering world class education. We have developed our taught programmes with great care in partnership with the wider and global sports industry to ensure that not only do our students have best in class business and management capabilities, but also understand the skills required and the nuances of the ranges of sports careers available.
Our academic and pastoral staff are well-renowned, passionate and care deeply about you and our institution. As a UCFB Masters student your experience is based upon the ‘touch points’ on a day to day basis and at UCFB we ensure that our staff are approachable and support you in your academic, career and personal development.
Our Masters students will be expected to undertake a research project with an external organisation. UCFB has an unparalleled range of industry contacts which provides opportunities for short term placements and projects for postgraduate students within organisations such as Wembley Stadium, The Football Association (FA), The Scottish Professional Football League (SPFL), Prozone, Green4Solutions, AON Sports, The Rugby Football League (RFL), Burnley Football Club and Orlando City Soccer Club.
“Our postgraduate programmes have been developed with great care in partnership with the wider and global sports industries to ensure that not only do our students gain best-in-class business and management capabilities, underpinned by academic rigor, but also understand the skills required and the nuances of the range of sports careers.”
