Master in Sports Studies with Smart Technology (MSST067)
Master in Sports Studies with Smart Technology (MSST067) at LSTH
Sport has become a data-driven industry that still depends on coaches, athletes and live events. The Master in Sports Studies with Smart Technology (MSST067) is built for people who want to operate at that intersection — using wearables, performance analytics and smart-technology systems to support athletes and teams, while still understanding the sport-tourism, leisure and recreation economy that sits behind professional sport.
At LSTH, the angle is deliberately on the sport-tourism and leisure crossover. Major events bring travel, accommodation, ticketing and venue economics with them. The Master in Sports Studies with Smart Technology gives postgraduate-level depth across both the technology and the surrounding industry context.
Why Smart Technology Has Reshaped Sport
From player tracking to recovery analytics to venue technology and broadcasting tools, sport now generates and consumes huge volumes of data. Senior roles in performance, in operations and in commercial sport increasingly require people who can talk fluently to coaches, to analysts and to technology vendors. That fluency does not happen by accident.

- Sports science and coaching graduates wanting a postgraduate technology layer.
- Working performance staff, S&C coaches and analysts moving into senior roles.
- Sport-tourism and events professionals wanting deeper technical credentials.
