Our students have gone on to <strong>enjoy successful careers<\/strong> as event planners, environmental educators, park rangers, program directors, sales representatives, operations managers and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Department of Parks, Recreation and Tourism Management is a close-knit community that outfits students with a <strong>real-world, experiential education<\/strong> through hands-on classes, required internship experiences and career advisement. Our faculty and staff care about the success of students and support them from application to graduation, ensuring they leave NC State with a well-rounded education and are more than prepared to excel in their chosen professions.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"ncst-labeled-section wp-block-ncst-featured-content ncst-featured-content is-card-style layout-two-column\">\n  <div class=\"ncst-labeled-section__background\">\n    <div class=\"ncst-labeled-section__container\">\n               <div class=\"ncst-labeled-section__header\">\n                      <h2 class=\"ncst-labeled-section__heading\">Find Your Fit<\/h2>\n                            <\/div>\n            <div class=\"ncst-labeled-section__content\">\n        \n<div class=\"wp-block-ncst-featured-content\"><a\n    class=\"ncst-content-card wp-block-ncst-content-card with-image\"\n    href=\"https:\/\/cnr.ncsu.edu\/prtm\/undergraduate\/degree-programs\/parks-recreation-and-tourism-management\/\"\n    data-ua-cat=\"Content Card\"\n    data-ua-action=\"Content Card Click\"\n    data-ua-label=https:\/\/cnr.ncsu.edu\/prtm\/undergraduate\/degree-programs\/parks-recreation-and-tourism-management\/\n  >\n  \n\n          <div class=\"content-card__image-container\">\n        <div class=\"content-card__image-background\">\n          <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\"\n            class=\"content-card__image wp-image-18683\"\n            alt=\"Find Your Fit\"\n            src=\"https:\/\/cnr.ncsu.edu\/prtm\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/2022\/10\/eventplanning-1024x576-1.jpg\"\n            style=\"aspect-ratio: 16\/9; object-fit: cover; \"\n srcset=\"https:\/\/cnr.ncsu.edu\/prtm\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/2022\/10\/eventplanning-1024x576-1.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cnr.ncsu.edu\/prtm\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/2022\/10\/eventplanning-1024x576-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cnr.ncsu.edu\/prtm\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/2022\/10\/eventplanning-1024x576-1-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\n        <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n    \n    <div class=\"content-card__text-container\">\n      \n                        <h3 class=\"content-card__headline\">Parks, Recreation and Tourism Management <\/h3>\n              \n\n              \n\t      \t        <p class=\"content-card__teaser\"><span class=\"text\">Whether you focus on outdoor adventures, event planning or active lifestyles, this business-focused program will prepare you to plan, market and promote enriching programs and manage facilities, staff and budgets.<\/span><span class=\"arrow-indicator\"><svg class=\"wolficon wolficon-arrow-right-light\" role=\"img\"  aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<use xlink:href=\"#wolficon-arrow-right-light\">\n\t\t<\/svg><\/span><\/p>\n\t      \t    \n              <p class=\"content-card__cta\"><\/p>\n          <\/div>\n\n  <\/a>\n\n\n<a\n    class=\"ncst-content-card wp-block-ncst-content-card with-image\"\n    href=\"https:\/\/cnr.ncsu.edu\/prtm\/undergraduate\/degree-programs\/sport-management\/\"\n    data-ua-cat=\"Content Card\"\n    data-ua-action=\"Content Card Click\"\n    data-ua-label=https:\/\/cnr.ncsu.edu\/prtm\/undergraduate\/degree-programs\/sport-management\/\n  >\n  \n\n          <div class=\"content-card__image-container\">\n        <div class=\"content-card__image-background\">\n          <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"825\" height=\"464\"\n            class=\"content-card__image wp-image-12775\"\n            alt=\"Sport Mgmt Students - Sport Management - Parks Recreation and Tourism Management NC State\"\n            src=\"https:\/\/cnr.ncsu.edu\/prtm\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/2019\/06\/sport-students-825x464-1.png\"\n            style=\"aspect-ratio: 16\/9; object-fit: cover; \"\n srcset=\"https:\/\/cnr.ncsu.edu\/prtm\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/2019\/06\/sport-students-825x464-1.png 825w, https:\/\/cnr.ncsu.edu\/prtm\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/2019\/06\/sport-students-825x464-1-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/cnr.ncsu.edu\/prtm\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/2019\/06\/sport-students-825x464-1-768x432.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 825px) 100vw, 825px\" \/>\n        <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n    \n    <div class=\"content-card__text-container\">\n      \n                        <h3 class=\"content-card__headline\">Sport Management<\/h3>\n              \n\n              \n\t      \t        <p class=\"content-card__teaser\"><span class=\"text\">From facilities and staff management to marketing, promotions and sales, this major is not for spectators.
