Kozminski University (KU), the academic partner of the International Centre for Sports Studies (CIES), has launched the registration process for the third edition of the FIFA/CIES Programme in Sports Management in Poland. The course is organised in cooperation with PL.2012+, which is the entity responsible for managing the PGE Narodowy stadium.
The establishment of the FIFA/CIES Programme is the result of a commitment in the field of education to contribute to the legacy of the EURO 2012 tournament held in Poland. Classes on the FIFA/CIES course allow students to acquire essential knowledge in marketing, sponsorship, law, management, communication, finance and the organisation of sports events.
KU, which is one of the top Polish universities, has the responsibility of adapting course content to the needs and requirements of Polish national sport. Moreover, the Programme offers students the opportunity to attend conferences given by international experts who share original views on ways to manage both sporting organisations and sports events.
Programme alumnus Damian Juszczyk, who is press officer at Wisła Kraków SA (Class of 2015), said,” This Programme is mainly about practice. Meetings with experts from Poland and from abroad, case studies, exchanging experiences. It is really motivating and inspiring! I highly recommend it.”
Filip Adamus, who is Marketing & PR Manager at Canal+ Sport Poland (2015), added, ” You learn about the complexity and possibilities in the sport area. Our group was diverse and everyone had different experiences connected with sport. This resulted in many interesting discussions. We are still in touch, and who knows, perhaps we will implement some of our joint projects in the near future.”
The International University Network created within the framework of the FIFA/CIES Programme comprises 16 universities in Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Costa Rica, Egypt, Lebanon, Palestine, Poland, Peru, Russia, Senegal, Spain, South Africa, Trinidad and Tobago, the United Arab Emirates and Venezuela.
Deadline for enrolment: 30 September 2016
