Abstract
American colleges and universities may or may not offer particular academic disciplines for their undergraduate and/or graduate students to earn a major or minor in such as within departments of mathematics, religion, and science, or divisions of business, economics, and education. Any schools with intercollegiate athletics, however, have a Department of Athletics (DOA). Besides fulltime faculty and the students enrolled in classes to study for careers in physical education, sport management, or sport medicine, most DOAs include an athletic director (AD), coaches, and other personnel who operate various sports programs. In fact, there are tables of data in Chap. 2 that indicate which men and women team sports were sponsored by schools in Division I, II, and III of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) during recent academic or fiscal years.
