Ever seen someone announce: 📢

"Excited to join a Premier League club as a Performance Analyst."

And thought...

Wait, that's a career in sports?

You're not alone.

Most sports enthusiasts know they want a career in sports.

What they don't know is:

What roles actually exist?

Which path fits their interests?

How to get started?

That's exactly why we, at IISM are hosting an exclusive seminar on Careers in Sports Management & Sports Science.

Discover the industries, roles, opportunities, and pathways that power the business and science behind sports.

And we'll answer the question everyone asks:

"Where do I start?"

Seminar Details:

📍 IISM Campus, Mumbai

📅 4th July 2026

⏰ 11 AM

🗣️ Mr. Amit Gupte, COO - IISM

Trade one Saturday morning for clarity on your future.

Register before the best seats on the podium are taken.

You learn theory in an institute.

But experience? You're usually expected to figure that out yourself. Not at IISM.

Take Aryaveer Katyal, a second-year Bachelor of Sports Management student at IISM. 🎓

While learning sports management in the classroom, Aryaveer was applying it on the ground during his internship with BookMyShow for the TATA WPL 2026. 🏏

Data collection. Vendor coordination. Operational execution. Budget tracking. Timeline management.

All in a day's work. 💼 Sounds stressful? Maybe.

But Aryaveer was busy having fun while doing it! 🤩 That's exactly what IISM prepares you for. 💯

At IISM, we train students to handle real-world pressure with confidence and precision, long before they step into the industry. 💪

So when opportunities like the TATA WPL come along, they're ready to deliver.

What does a day in the life of an IISM sports management student really look like? 🤔

Meet Dayakar B., a Master of Sports Management student at IISM, who interned with the Baroda Cricket Association during the TATA WPL 2026 in Vadodara, Gujarat. 🏏 🏟️

From branding and accreditation to guest relations, stadium operations, logistics, and ensuring everything worked seamlessly, Dayakar experienced first-hand what it takes to deliver a world-class sporting event.

With multiple responsibilities across different functions, Dayakar had his hands full, gaining valuable exposure to the fast-paced world of sports event management. 📈

But when you do what you love, the effort never feels the same.

Taking on every task with enthusiasm and a smile, Dayakar turned each responsibility into an opportunity to learn, grow, and contribute.

And that's exactly the kind of passion we groom at IISM.

Experiences like these help our students understand the business, operations, culture, and energy that power the sports industry.

“He did a lot of internships and projects along with his studies, and that is something he learnt from IISM,” says Nirav Trivedi, brother of Rajman Joshi, a Bachelor of Sports Management graduate from International Institute of Sports & Management. 🎓

From complaining about his introversion to seeing his transformation into someone who actively takes up opportunities and networking, his brother felt immensely proud. 😊

When asked about why Sports Management and Why IISM, he answered by saying this: "Firstly, Compared to other countries, our country is behind and there are so many opportunities because of government initiatives! Secondly, IISM is a platform where I have seen my brother grow, a lot of opportunities, study-wise, it is Mumbai University affiliated and professionally a lot of doors have opened for him."

Sometimes growth looks like stepping out of your comfort zone.

Sometimes it looks like finding your place in the sports industry.

And that place is IISM.
