Esports and Gaming Administration Minor
Esports is a booming, multibillion-dollar industry with a high demand for business-minded leaders. Gaming administration professionals need expertise in more than tech and business.

This academic program serves students who are interesting in the large, global aspects of the business of sports. The esports and gaming administration minor equips students with skills in management, event planning, marketing and distribution—broad skills that carry value across industries.
