Program overview
The Bachelor of Arts - Sport and Leisure Management at Trinity Western University’s Langley campus in British Columbia is a 4 year bachelor's-degree program preparing managers for the sport, recreation and leisure industries.
Coursework spans sport administration, event and facility management, marketing, finance and leadership, applied through practicum placements with teams, clubs and recreation providers across Metro Vancouver. TWU's championship Spartans athletics program keeps students close to high-performance sport.
TWU teaches in small, professor-led classes on a 157-acre residential campus about 45 minutes from Vancouver, and is a provincially chartered member of Universities Canada — so the credential is fully recognised for employment and further study. Uniquely among Canadian universities, international students pay the same tuition as domestic students, and three intakes a year (September, January and May for many programs) keep start dates flexible.
Because this is a full bachelor’s degree, graduates are exempt from Canada’s post-2024 PGWP field-of-study restriction and may qualify for a Post-Graduation Work Permit of up to three years (final decision rests with IRCC).
