In partnership with Sun Devil Athletics, the athletic department at Arizona State University, the SLB Program proudly offers admitted MSLB students the chance to work directly in the field while in school. Graduate assistantship positions are awarded to students with exceptional prior work experience in sports, as well as a sincere understanding of the business and regulation of the industry. Graduate assistantship positions provide full tuition and fees for all students, whether they are in-state or out-of-state students, as well as a $1,000 monthly stipend for nine months.

The number of MSLB graduate assistantship positions vary each year and depend on Sun Devil Athletics. Graduate assistantship positions are only offered to MSLB students who have reconfirmed their acceptance into the MSLB degree program.

Apply for the MSLB Graduate Assistants Program

MSLB Graduate Assistants (GA) must agree to the following requirements:

  1. Graduate assistantship positions run for one term, from Sept. 1 to May 31. Positions are evaluated at the end of each academic year and terms are renewed based on performance, as well as the need from Sun Devil Athletics.
  2. Graduate assistants are required to enroll in the MSLB degree program part-time, with a total of nine credit hours per semester.
  3. Students who are awarded a graduate assistant position are not allowed to use the role as their required applied project or internship.

  1. Must be a current or incoming MSLB student.
    • Incoming MSLB students must reconfirm their admittance into the program before applying.
