A Thorough Guide Explaining Everything about
Bachelor of Sports Science (BSS) and Master of
Sports Science (MSS)

• International Institute of Sports Management
  (IISM) is a Sports Management Education
  Institute established in 2010 with an aim to

  students interested in pursuing an education in
  Sports Management.

The institute offers the perfect combination of
theoretical classroom training and practical
on-field application blended programs. The
benefit of such courses is that it provides the
ideal environment for the students to develop
their management skills, orientation and
capabilities. The students also learn about
entrepreneurial, leadership skills, and
professional competence. We train our students
in such a way that once they have completed our
courses, they will be in a position to identify
and fulfill the gaps of the sports corporate
world. Sports industry today The pandemic created
major headwinds in the sports industry in 2020
which led to fewer sporting opportunities which
took a heavy toll and the industry only generated
INR 5894 Cr (796 Mn), in revenue. But after
some minor turbulence in 2021, the industry
bounced right back and spun into action
generating revenue of INR 9530 Cr (1288 Mn). Now
you might be wondering how did the industry
manage to surpass 1000 Mn in just a year? it was
solely because of three factors sponsorships,
athlete endorsements, and media spending by
brands. As per the report from the FICCI
document, the sports industry will employ
roughly 43.7 lakh people over the years in India.
This is enough to prove that Indias sporting
eco-system will be upgraded with world-class
experts who will cover the entire spectrum of
the industry. This means that more coaches,
track and field experts, sports medicine experts,
trainers, sports nutrition experts, sports
psychologists, strength trainers, competition
managers, sports photographers, journalists, law
experts, and nutritionists will be needed in the
future. Taking it further and to ensure our
students get the full support and appreciation
they deserve our experts from IISM established
the School of Sports Science.

What is the School of Sports Science? Considering
the long-term objective of our sports industry,
the team from IISM who pioneered in Sports
Management Education in 2011 established the
School of Sports Science in 2022. We have
trained over 1800 students who are now employed
across various mega sporting bodies and
federations in India and overseas. Our team have
curated these specialized courses in
collaboration with the experts from the
University of Mumbai and the Garware Institute
of Career Education Development (GICED). Our
vision is to become a key contributor in making
India a sporting country and to be a catalyst of
the growth by being the Center of Excellence in
Sports Management allied areas of
Education. Our mission is to help carve Sports
Management heroes who would represent India on
the global map and in leading sporting events
like FIFA World Cups, Asian Games, Commonwealth
Games, The Olympics, and other Major Leagues. We
aim to provide support and nourishment at the
grassroots levels across India and
overseas. What is Sports Science? Sports Science
is that branch of science that analyzes
physiology, biomechanics, psychology,
biochemistry, and strength conditioning that
enhances the comprehensive performance of the
athletes to improve the results, enhance
performance, and reduce any kinds of on-field
injuries, prehab, rehab, and assist in winning
championships. Sports Science is that domain
that identifies the factors that impact sports
performance and suggests strategies that will
help improve the play of the athletes. Our main
objective of introducing Sports Sciences is to
provide assistance to the current sports
industry to eradicate any gap between the demand
and supply of scientists, and experts in India
and overseas. The knowledge imparted in this
field is not restricted to athletes but is also
beneficial for professionals who want to make a
contribution to the overall success of the sports
industry.
