Sports Management @ Drexel?

<p>Can any one shed some light on The Sports Management Program Drexel has for me? I applied there and if I do decide to go there I am most likely going to major in it. Is Drexel's program any good? I know they're about Engineering and stuff but I would still like to know. Especially with the Co-op programs I would think that Drexel is a good suitor in a city like Philly. </p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>"Especially with the Co-op programs I would think that Drexel is a good suitor in a city like Philly."</p>

<p>I think that pretty much answers your own question. I'm not sure how good the specific program is, but as a whole the things you mentioned above are two critical factors in Drexel's success. The Co-op program and location play roles in both attracting students, as well as preparing students for careers.</p>

<p>Hi jac, i'm a student at drexel. i'm glad you found a major you're interested in. I actually can't think of that many of my friends who are in the sports management program but a few does stand out to me. By sports management were you interested in the business aspects of sports, or the press, or what.</p>

<p>Although I don't know too much about the curriculum, I know a lot of great co-ops Drexel offers to Sports Management majors and others. For example there are many enjoyable co-ops available with the Philadelphia Eagles, Phillies, etc. I also know someone who did a stint as a college sideline reporter for Comcast Sportsnet on TV.</p>

<p>For your information, I just did a search on Drexel's co-op system for past sports management jobs that yielded dozens of results. Here's a list of just a random page:</p>
