Resumen
You’ve studied law and you're going to have a legal career. But specializations are as varied as human activity itself, and you want to work in a sector you're passionate about. If you're reading this, it's clear — sport is your passion.
As you know — and as sport teaches — wanting something is not enough to achieve it, especially when the reward is great. You have to work for it. An athlete who wants to reach the elite level knows they need to be trained by the best, with the best methods, and that they must spare no effort. What you want is something others want too, and you have to compete to be the one who gets it.
That much is clear. You want to develop your professional career in the sports sector, and you want to train with the best to become the best professional you can be and build a successful career. So, if that’s clear, then it should also be clear where you need to train. The Master’s in International Sports Law was the first of its kind and continues to lead the field, with the highest number of alumni in top positions. So, if you want to be part of the winning team, this is your master’s.

Some of our key points
The advantage of having your instructors be active professionals from the most reputable firms and institutions is that they know there is nothing more practical than good theory, but that theory, like working methods, is valuable only when it works in practice. They will teach you how to work, and the knowledge and skills acquired in the first phase of the program are exactly what you will apply in the professional integration phase, during the second part of the master’s program.
In addition to the classes held in Spain, the master’s program also includes two training stays abroad that will enrich your knowledge and your resume. One of them takes place at the University of Cambridge and the other in Switzerland, visiting sports institutions and specialized professional firms.
Your classmates will come from different countries and cultures. This will enrich classroom work and allow you to start building that network of contacts, which will also include your professors and other professionals in the international field, spread across the world and in various firms, institutions, and economic sectors.
If a professional is not prepared today to work in a digital environment, they are not being adequately trained. To ensure this is more than just words, master’s students will take a course in Digital Business taught by ISDI, the leading school in the digital field, for which they will also receive the corresponding accreditation.
