Sports Management Program Featured in West Hartford Life

The new sports management program housed within the Barney School of Business has been profiled in the West Hartford Life publication, along with early success stories of students. 

The program officially launches this fall at the University of Hartford under the guidance of Director John Papa. 

Papa, Barney Interim Dean Carmen Cotei, and Gabi Morris ’24 were interviewed for the story, while Reilly Keegan ’24, M’25 was featured in a photo at her Yard Goats internship. Morris discussed moving to the East Coast from California to be a part of the new major, as well as her summer internship with Special Olympics Connecticut. 

Cotei and Papa also outlined the growing job opportunities in sports management, student opportunities both within and outside of the classroom, and real-world experiences that will prepare them for their careers.
