Business of Sports Alumni Testimonials

鈥漁f course, like the other 49 incredible students within the BOS Program, I am a massive sports fan, although it was a passion that I didn't realize I had until later in life. I had no idea or guidance on how to get there. This is where BOS, and, most importantly, Jessica Baumgarten, have given me the incredible steppingstones to reach my goals. The BOS Program has been nothing short of a life-changing experience."鈥擟ory L., BOS鈥24

鈥淚 created CU Women in Sports, a student organization dedicated to providing young women opportunities to network with industry professionals and learn more about different career paths within sports to increase female representation. I also am a marketing intern for CU Athletics. I knew this program would provide me many opportunities to network with professional sports organizations and individuals."鈥擲ophie O., BOS鈥24

鈥淏OS was a great way to spend my summer! I relished the opportunity to work on a project for a team within the sports industry and get a feel for how work in the industry would be. This is truly an experience you won't get anywhere else. The program also brings in great guest speakers from the industry and really allows you to build a network while you can also get an idea of what you might like to pursue in the sports industry.鈥

"BOS was an unforgettable experience for me. While always having a desire to work in the sports industry, I have not felt as confident in my skills and experience as I do now from what I learned in BOS. I believe BOS is perfect for anyone wanting to work in sports, as the program teaches you what it takes to be a professional all while having a blast along the way!"

"As a parent, I was so pleased to see my son really find his career passion through the Business of Sports Program at the Leeds School of Business. He was thoroughly engaged and took advantage of all the networking opportunities available through the program. What a great hands-on program for students wanting to learn the business-side of sports."
