Overview
The Sports Ethics and Integrity program aims to teach advanced academic knowledge in the field of ethics and integrity in sports. It focuses both on sporting organizations (governance, regulations and legal foundations) and on the people (inclusion, discrimination, health).
The MAiSI consortium brings together six top level higher education institutions with international recognition in the different fields of sports and beyond.
Objectives
Ethics and integrity are becoming an integral part of future employability in sporting organizations. MAiSI aims at establishing an international degree program which brings together a consortium of excellent higher education institutions. The Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz program includes full-ride scholarships for students within the ERASMUS+ program.
In order to improve the performance of organizations and key players, MAiSI will equip students for high-level careers in sports administration and governance, concentrating on a systematic and integral understanding of ethical, legal and economic aspects and dimensions of governance in the field of sports. The program aims at establishing a new and specific profession within sports management and administration (so called ‘advisers for ethics and integrity in sports’), which develops research and evidence based guidelines and practices that will contribute to the protection and promotion of a good sport for all stakeholders involved.
By passing the master’s exam, the student demonstrates that he or she has obtained the expert skills that are indispensable for addressing ethical and integrity issues, understands the correlations in the specific academic discipline and has the ability to apply scientific methods and knowledge in the context of professional activities in the field of international sports, especially sporting organizations.
