MGT 232 - Venue and Facilities Management


Semester Hours: 3
Periodically                
This course allows students to receive an in-depth, behind the scenes look at what is the management and operation of various athletic and public assembly facilities (PAF).  Concepts common to all types of PAFs, as well as applications of basic concepts from the field of operations management as these apply to large scale public events will be discussed. These will include justification for construction through capacity planning and process analysis, box office operations, scheduling queuing theory, client-tenant relations (including multi-use facilities on the college campus), booking policies, food service, security and crowd management and quality management. This course will serve students in preparing for a career in franchise operations, sports/entertainment and event management on the college or professional level and  in gaining a keen professional sense of observation and attention to detail related to a properly operated venue.
