A lot of them have a little bit of experience,  not all of them are quite ready to go as fast as others. And what I've found from the students at the Ë¿¹ÏÊÓƵAPPprogram, is they have a lot of practical experience. A lot of them have done internships here, with Rawlings, and they're thinking about their career from the time they get into the program.  So, of course they learn the foundational things that are necessary to get their degree, but they also have a very good sense of what it takes to succeed in the workforce. What impresses me the most about the Ë¿¹ÏÊÓƵAPPprogram is the practicality and the common sense. The staff is very thoughtful in terms of not just educating their students, but what their students are gonna be when they're out. The staff cares about the track record of where their students land and looking back several years later and seeing what they've done for their career. And I like that, because their work isn't done when they've finished educating them. Their work is done when their students become successful in the sports world. I think the future of the partnership is very bright. I hope it continues for a very long time. It has been a pleasure having the school, literally, in our back yard. We get a lot of research from the students. We get very practical insights. They're hitting the ground running. They're actually doing work while they're getting educated. So it works for both of us. They have a lot more experience by the time they graduate, and we get work along the way that makes a big difference for us. Going forward, I hope that we can not only continue it, but expand upon it. The University's going in the right direction, and the program is getting bigger and more prestigious, and of course I want to be a part of it. It's a great value for us.<\/div>\n\n<\/li>\n\n\n<\/ul>\n\n\n----><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"grid-x grid-padding-x show-for-small-only\">\n<div class=\"small-12 cell\"><a class=\"button expanded pp-mobile-app-button \" href=\"\/about\/engage\/\">VISIT CAMPUS<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"small-12 cell\"><a class=\"button expanded pp-mobile-app-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.maryville.edu\/admissions\/saints-nation\/\">REQUEST INFORMATION<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"grid-x grid-padding-x show-for-small-only\">\n<div class=\"small-12 cell\"><a class=\"pp-mobile-app-button button expanded\" href=\"\/admissions\/apply\/\">APPLY NOW<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"grid-container\">\n<div class=\"grid-x grid-x-padding pp-standard-margin-top pp-standard-margin-bottom-with-ending-p\">\n<div class=\"small-12 large-4 cell\"><span class=\"pp-intro-red show-for-medium\">Partnering to Create a New Class<\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"pp-intro-gray show-for-medium\">of the Finest in the Field.&#x2122;<\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"pp-intro-red show-for-small-only\">Partnering to Create a New Class of the Finest in the Field.&#x2122;<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"small-12 large-8 cell\">\n<p><span class=\"pp-strong\">The Rawlings Sport Business Management program is intentional about creating <a href=\"https:\/\/www.maryville.edu\/bu\/sport-business-management\/program-goals\/\">a project-based learning environment<\/a> that prepares students with the skills, network and real-world experience needed to compete in today\u2019s job market.<\/span> From the first semester, students work alongside experts both in the classroom and on the field.<\/p>\n<p>Through extensive internship and professional industry experience opportunities, students work with partner organizations \u2014 including Rawlings Sporting Goods, St. Louis Cardinals, Missouri Valley Conference, Peak Sports MGMT, and 80+ other industry leaders \u2014 and gain valuable skills in sponsorship, sales, marketing, event management, data analytics, and more.<\/p>\n<p>Our graduates are career-ready and equipped to make an immediate impact across the sport business industry.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"pp-strong\">The world of sport is so much more than the games played\u2014 marketing, promotions, and sales play vital roles.<\/span> Ë¿¹ÏÊÓƵAPP&#8217;s Rawlings Sport Business Management program can turn a student\u2019s passion for sports into a career they will love.<\/p>\n<p>Students will gain an understanding of the sports industry through the lens of business, economics, finance, and communications, all while receiving a strong foundation in business management.
