Inside the Industry: SPM Students' Internship Experience

    Wednesday, October 14, 2026 at 5:00 PM until 6:00 PMPacific Daylight Time UTC -07:00

    What does it look like to take your SPM learning into the sport and outdoor product industry?

    Each summer, Sports Product Management students take what they’ve learned in the classroom and apply it through real-world industry experiences. This past summer, students gained experience across product management, merchandising, marketing, product design, footwear manufacturing, and more. Others pursued industry projects, independent product projects, and retail experiences.

    Join us for a conversation with second-year SPM students as they share firsthand perspectives from their Summer Internships. You’ll hear from students who worked with brands in the U.S. and students who traveled overseas to gain firsthand experience in global manufacturing.

    They’ll share:

    • The projects and responsibilities they took on
    • How their SPM coursework prepared them for the experience
    • What they learned about the sport and outdoor product industry
    • The challenges, surprises, and lessons they encountered along the way
    • How their summer experiences are shaping their career goals

    You’ll also have the opportunity to ask students questions about their experiences and what it’s like to be part of the SPM program.
