completely satisfied studies
In my experience, the lecturers are very competent. The online lectures work perfectly from home. You can also start studying at CIE at any time, not just during the summer or winter semester. There are also student communities with whom you can connect to learn. In general, CIE is very well structured and extremely personal.

I can truly recommend studying the master of sports administration to anyone who can't get enough of sports, both in their free time and during their studies. You meet some really lovely people and have really interesting lectures. Especially helpful is the legal part about contracts, sponsorships and all the managerial parts.
