About the Program

 
Follow your passion into an active and adventurous career with a Recreation and Sport Management degree.
Be an ambassador for nature appreciation, sports, and physical and social well being. FSU’s Bachelor of Science in Recreation and Sport Management is the only degree of its kind offered in the state of Maryland. Our nationally accredited program offers you the chance to pursue your sports and rec interests through specialized hands-on experiences under the guidance of skilled and expert faculty.

You can customize your area of interest into such careers as a park ranger, program staff at a resort, campus recreation staff, sports promotion specialist, camp director or an adventure sports specialist. It is also an excellent pathway to providing recreation programs in communities or senior living facilities that help young and old be active, creative, and pursue healthy lifestyles.

 The program is accredited by the Council on Accreditation of Parks, Recreation, Tourism and Related Professions (COAPRT). Legal residents of Delaware may complete a recreation and parks management degree with an adventure sports concentration at Maryland resident tuition rates through the SREB Academic Common Market (ACM). Legal residents of West Virginia may complete a recreation and parks management degree with an adventure sports or sport promotion and communication concentration at Maryland resident tuition rates through the SREB Academic Common Market (ACM). If students already have a bachelor’s degree from another institution or pursue a second major at FSU, they are not eligible to participate in ACM.
