Career paths
A degree in e-Sports Management opens up a wide range of career opportunities for students in a dynamic and rapidly growing industry. The e-sports industry is internationally orientated, which means that graduates have excellent career prospects both at home and abroad.
Students can gain a foothold in various areas, including e-sports organisations and teams, event and tournament management, marketing and sponsorship, media and streaming platforms.
Graduates position themselves professionally in e-sports management, as event managers in e-sports, community or social media managers, project managers for e-sports projects, business development managers in the gaming industry and much more.
e-Sports is a global industry by nature. Many companies and teams operate worldwide and the biggest events often take place in countries such as the USA, South Korea or China and Europe. This offers graduates the opportunity to work internationally and benefit from a global career. Especially in markets such as the USA, Asia and Northern Europe, there are attractive and well-paid jobs, as e-sports is particularly well established there.
As a graduate of a Master’s programme in e-Sports Management, you will have in-depth knowledge of strategic management, financial planning and international marketing. This qualifies graduates for management positions. Master’s graduates often move into better-paid positions as they have specialised knowledge and in-depth practice in project and event management.
A Master’s degree is very often a door opener to larger international companies and makes graduates more attractive for positions that require strategic thinking and experience in managing e-sports projects on a global level.
