Description

Courses in this Exchange Study Programme are meant for Incoming exchange students who study sport business or related study fields at their home institution at master level. An exchange agreement with Jamk and the home institution is required. Students should contact their home institution’s International Office/Services to find out if a co-operation agreement exists.

The courses are part of our Sport Business Management master's degree students curriculum and are taught in English.

Most of the courses are on-campus implementations and students are required to be present. Courses are organised as intensive on-campus days once a month (3 days) together with self-study modules. There is no specific exam period, exams and assignments are completed during the course.

One ECTS credit is equivalent to about 27 hours of student work.
