Research and Social Impact Initiatives

We believe that solid research is the foundation for driving conversations around the intersection of sport and its impact on society. The Center aims to utilize the research expertise of our award-winning faculty to foster innovation and facilitate informed decision-making regarding issues at the nexus of sport and social impact. Through the implementation and support of research projects, research symposiums, and invitations of visting scholars and industry professionals, the Center seeks to produce data-driven and impactful knowledge surrounding issues of equality, access, social justice, ethics, and inclusion. We provide a collaborative environment for students, scholars, and industry leaders to drive the conversation and debate about the social impact of sport.
