Major introduction

Learn how to plan, operate, and manage sports events, becoming the 'chief director' behind the scenes.

Program overview

Event Management is all about turning a sports competition from an idea into reality. You'll learn core skills like event planning, venue management, volunteer coordination, media communication, and sponsor partnerships. Courses cover sports event management, sports marketing, sports regulations, and event risk assessment. Many Chinese universities use real cases like the Beijing Winter Olympics and Hangzhou Asian Games to teach, giving you direct exposure to the logic behind large-scale events. This major is perfect for students who love sports, have organizational skills, are detail-oriented, and thrive under pressure. China has rich experience in organizing major events, and universities often collaborate with sports bureaus and event companies to offer internship opportunities.

Major prospects

这个领域目前在中国很热。全民健身和体育消费升级让各种马拉松、篮球赛、电竞比赛越来越多,从政府到企业都在办赛事。国际学生可以关注几个方向:一是中国本土赛事IP的国际化,比如中超、CBA需要懂国际规则的人才;二是电子竞技赛事组织,中国是电竞大国,相关岗位需求大;三是体育旅游,比如结合马拉松的旅游项目。另外,中国正在申办更多国际赛事,对懂外语、有国际视野的赛事管理人才需求很稳定。

Career prospects

毕业后可以去体育赛事公司(如阿里体育、万达体育)、体育局或体育协会、体育场馆运营方、体育营销公司、职业俱乐部、体育媒体等。常见岗位有赛事运营专员、赛事项目经理、体育营销策划、场馆运营主管等。刚入行薪资大概在8000-15000元/月(一线城市),有经验后项目经理年薪可达20-40万。国际学生如果中文流利,还可以做国际赛事联络或海外市场拓展,薪资会更高。
