Der Studiengang Sportwissenschaft: Organisationsentwicklung und Management ist super breit aufgestellt. Ich würde ihn allen empfehlen, die sich für wirtschaftliche Themen interessieren und diese mit ihrer Leidenschaft für Sport verbinden möchten. Mein persönlcihes Highlight war mein Pflichtpraktikum bei einem renommierten Radherrsteller, wo ich sowohl die theroretischen Grundlagen als auch meine Leidenschaft für Radsport miteinander verbinden konnte.
