The Area of Emphasis in Sports Law under the Master in the Study of Law (M.S.L.) degree was developed to prepare students for a career as a sports agent. The Master in the Study of Law (M.S.L.) degree is an ideal educational background for sports agents as they utilize many legal principles throughout their careers, such as agency law, contract analysis and drafting, and negotiation of contractual language. However, sports agents are not required to be attorneys. Graduates of this program will have a comprehensive understanding of all aspects of the sports agents’ career, as well as foundational knowledge of the legal principles that are important to a sports agent’s career.
