Bachelor
of Sport Science (BS)
School of Business and
Economics
Atlantic International University
The Bachelor of Sport Science (BS) program
provides students with the knowledge necessary
to apply the management principles, concepts,
and practices associated with the operations
and maintenance of sports and recreation
facilities. Students learn to interpret
the legal and regulatory issues associated
with recreational, officially sanctioned,
and professional sports. The Bachelor of
Sport Science (BS) program is offered online
via distance learning. After evaluating
both academic record and life experience,
AIU staff working in conjunction with Faculty
and Academic Advisors will assist students
in setting up a custom-made program, designed
on an individual basis. This flexibility
to meet student needs is seldom found in
other distance learning programs. Our online
program does not require all students to
take the same subjects/courses, use the
same books, or learning materials. Instead,
the online Bachelor of Sport Science (BS)
curriculum is designed individually by the
student and academic advisor. It specifically
addresses strengths and weaknesses with
respect to market opportunities in the student’s
major and intended field of work. Understanding
that industry and geographic factors should
influence the content of the curriculum
instead of a standardized one-fits-all design
is the hallmark of AIU’s unique approach
to adult education. This philosophy addresses
the dynamic and constantly changing environment
of working professionals by helping adult
students in reaching their professional
and personal goals within the scope of the
degree program.
Important: Below is an example of the topics
or areas you may develop and work on during
your studies. By no means is it a complete
or required list as AIU programs do not
follow a standardized curriculum. It is
meant solely as a reference point and example.
