Here at the University of Liverpool Management School (ULMS) we are happy to announce the launch of our new MSc in eSports Business, further expanding our portfolio of dynamic business and digital innovation programmes.
The global eSports industry is fast moving and continues to evolve into one of the world’s most influential entertainment industries. Our newly anticipated programme is delivered by experts and designed for ambitious graduates and early-career professionals who want to build the professional capabilities needed to operate in meaningful careers in esports, gaming, digital media and the wider sports business environment.
Kick-starting in September 2026, our MSc in eSports Business combines advanced studies in esports business, marketing, sponsorship, analytics and digital innovation. Students will explore the structures behind successful competitive and interactive experiences and learn how games and competitions are designed, balanced, governed, marketed and monetised in a global industry that never stands still.
Our exciting master’s programme will be taught full time over 12 months where students will experience live industry case studies, practical analytical training and regular engagement with practitioners, ensuring graduates develop the professional capabilities demanded by employers across esports teams, leagues, publishers, agencies and digital media organisations.
Join us at one of our upcoming Postgraduate Open Events, either in-person or online in March 2026, to discuss if you are ready to shape what comes next in eSports in addition to learning about scholarships and bursaries opportunities, careers support, campus facilities and more.
