The Institute of Sports Economics and Management is responsible for Sport Management, Recreation Management and Health Promotion bachelor programs accredited to sports sciences. The Institute also plays a dominant role in teaching Sports Economics and Teacher of Economics accredited to economics sciences. The lecturers of the Institute teach approx. 40 subjects per semester, related first of all to these majors.
In our teaching work, our aim is to transfer knowledge in sport expertise (knowledge in fields of sports), organization (sports management, recreation management, sport event organization, facility management etc.), economics (sports economics, sports ecology etc.) and social sciences (sociology, sports sociology, sports pedagogy, sports psychology).
The students have to possess not only theoretical knowledge that can be converted easily in their future jobs but they also need to know the expectations of sports sector role players. Therefore we have close contacts with national sport associations and sport clubs and organizations- first of all in Debrecen, where our students are able to have practical training.
We often invite the representatives of the above-mentioned organizations and other international sport professionals to give lectures, offering our students state-of-the-art knowledge to enter the labour market after their graduation this way. The students also have the opportunity to take an active part in organizing international and national sport events, which also ensures the practice-oriented education.
The Institute gives place for multidisciplinary research, analysing physical and sport activity, healthy lifestyle in social, economic and management perspective, assessing them on the micro level on individual/household basis, on the mezo level on organizational/employer basis and on the macro level on national economy basis.
