Hi Josh,

This is a great question! I have spent many years as an automotive and defense engineer though engineering principles apply in many industries. I see sports engineering as very important with a large landscape of engineering applications. Some areas that come to mind – The concepts, requirements, design, development, and testing/validation of sports gym training equipment. In addition, the design and control of software and sensors to monitor athletes as they train. Also, there are roles in the design of sports arenas/facilities. Furthermore, the equipment which athletes wear needs to be designed to meet safety requirements. Best wishes as you explore your options for a future career.
