READY WHEN YOUR NUMBER IS CALLED
The University of Washington College of Education's Master of Education in Intercollegiate Athletic Leadership (IAL) is a unique degree program that prepares those who aspire to leadership positions within intercollegiate sports.
The IAL program addresses the challenges common to athletic administration at all levels while providing a better understanding of the role of athletics within the educational setting. Focusing on college athletics rather than the entire spectrum of sports advances your knowledge of how athletics is uniquely situated within intercollegiate settings and the significant impact it has on student athletes. The curriculum bridges theory with practice, drawing on the expertise of UW faculty in the College of Education, Information School, Evan’s School of Public Affairs, Foster School of Business as well as professionals from the UW athletic department and the Seattle sports industry. Designed with input from an advisory board of top national college athletic and academic administrators, the program's advanced leadership training deepens your understanding of the critical areas of college and university athletics' organizations. The IAL program will equip you with a solid foundation in core business competencies, including financial management, strategic planning, public relations, marketing and fundraising. The program's unique format allows you to finish your degree in only 12 months.
