Additional Information

YOUR FUTURE CAREER

The professional grounding you receive in all areas of sports writing will arm you with the skills needed to help secure many different types of jobs within the sports business.

After earning their degrees, our students have gone on to work not just in sports media but other areas connected to the sports world.

For instance, recent graduates now work for organisations such as media management company Red Bee, public relations firm Weber Shandwick and Coral bookmakers.

Our work placements and the chance to learn from journalists who have made their names at organisations like BBC Sport, talkSPORT radio, Sky and World Soccer magazine open up invaluable pathways for your future.

They'll offer you the chance to earn valuable contacts, as will your close ties with the athletes you’ll be lucky enough to meet during your course.

For example, in 2012 our students worked with TeamUSA before the Olympics. Since the Games, we've maintained close contacts with UEL's elite sportsmen and women who train at the SportsDock centre, including sprint stars Adam Gemili and Bianca Williams and leading swimmer Aimee Willmott.

One of our recent graduates now works in the marketing and communications department at SportsDock.
