Int. Leisure Sciences (Academic) (HBO)

As a leisure expert you investigate issues concerning leisure and its impact on people and society. You're combining diverse academic areas such as sociology, economics, marketing, and geography.

Leisure activities are more than just a pastime. They can also indirectly provide health improvements, social cohesion in neighbourhoods and sustainable development in cities or regions. What effect does leisure have on your well-being, and how can it contribute towards social participation in a problem neighbourhood? What is needed for a talented sportswoman or musician to develop into a real sports star or successful musician?

The leisure expert explores these concepts through a multidisciplinary, academic, and research-based approach.

Your future position is likely to be within sport associations, consultancy and engineering agencies, event organisations or within state, provincial and local authorities. Examples of professions are: academic and applied researcher, consultant, lecturer, leisure policy developer or project manager. You’ll investigate and expand the scientific foundations underlying the exciting world of leisure.
