\"Andr\u00e9s,
Andr\u00e9s Hernandez, Sports Communication graduate student<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Do you have big dreams for public relations in sports, or maybe sports journalism, but don\u2019t know how to get started? You\u2019re in luck! Today we\u2019re interviewing Andr\u00e9s Hernandez, a current student in Emerson\u2019s Sports Communication (MA) graduate program<\/a>.<\/strong> You\u2019ll get a taste of how Andr\u00e9s utilizes Emerson\u2019s connections and resources to follow his passion for sports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is Sports Communication?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Sports communication<\/a> <\/strong>is a broad field that combines sports knowledge with some form of communication, such as public relations, marketing, or journalism. The field encompasses careers <\/a><\/strong>from event planning to sports brand management and everything in between. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n

How did you decide to study Sports Communication?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI started out thinking I wanted to go into sports journalism,\u201d Andr\u00e9s explains. After studying Social Communication and Journalism at Universidad del Norte<\/a> <\/strong>near his hometown in Colombia, Andr\u00e9s gained great experience hosting sports shows for a regional TV station<\/a> <\/strong>and covering sports for Diario AS<\/a>,<\/strong> a daily sports paper. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

While Andr\u00e9s appreciates the experience he gained in sports journalism, his time working for a soccer club in Cartagena made him realize he was more interested in sports communication. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThat changed a lot of my perspective. Working for a sports team gave me experience with public relations in sports, which I loved,” Andr\u00e9s says. He realized that sports journalism was a narrower field than sports communication, and he liked the variety of experiences he could gain in sports communication. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n

Why Emerson?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI decided to study in the States because I had heard from my work colleagues that it\u2019s difficult to get employment in Europe after studying sports communication [in Europe],\u201d Andr\u00e9s explains. Andr\u00e9s also knew that demand is growing for bilingual employees<\/a><\/strong> in the U.S., especially in sports communication, which is an international industry. Because Andr\u00e9s himself is bilingual in Spanish and English, he knew he could fill this need. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAs far as Emerson specifically, a couple things made it stand out,\u201d Andr\u00e9s explains. First, Emerson\u2019s Sports Communication program places heavy emphasis on the global context<\/a> <\/strong>of sports, training students to consider the sports industries around the world, not just in the U.S. Andr\u00e9s appreciated this international approach to sports communication. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Andr\u00e9s also notes how helpful Emerson\u2019s scholarship offerings<\/a> <\/strong>were. He received more scholarships from Emerson than he did from any other program he applied to, which helped Andr\u00e9s feel more comfortable investing in graduate school. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is a typical day in your life?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI usually wake up at 8:00 a.m. so I have time to exercise, eat breakfast, and shower before work,\u201d Andr\u00e9s says. He currently works two part time jobs. From 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. Andr\u00e9s works remotely for his Reporting Assistant position at Emerson, where he helps with Google Analytics. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAfter lunch, I always head to campus, whether I have class or not,\u201d he adds. Andr\u00e9s\u2019s favorite study spot is the Grad Student Lounge<\/a>, <\/strong>located on the 12th floor of the Ansin building. Here, he will work on his assignments until 6 p.m., when he either goes to class or heads home. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of Andr\u00e9s\u2019s favorite things about being on campus is the connections he has made, both with peers and his professors. \u201cSports Communication is a smaller program, so all of us students are very close and the environment is very collaborative.\u201d Andr\u00e9s recalls feeling reserved his first few weeks on campus, but soon found that he got along well with everyone in his program. Now a highlight of his week is going out for a drink with classmates at the end of the week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI also feel that the professors<\/a> <\/strong>in my program are very interested in helping us succeed,\u201d Andr\u00e9s adds. He explains how professors encourage students to ask questions and often send out reminders about assignment due dates. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What advice would you give prospective students?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Andr\u00e9s\u2019s biggest piece of advice is to ask plenty of questions. \u201cI\u2019ve been looking for masters programs for the past two years, and I feel I\u2019ve been coming up short by not asking enough questions,\u201d he explains. \u201cEmerson was so transparent that it encouraged me to keep asking more questions. My admission counselor<\/a> <\/strong>always helped me find answers.\u201d <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

What\u2019s next for you?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI would love to stay in the States to work for a sports team or sports company,\u201d Andr\u00e9s says. He enjoys the sports culture of the U.S. and is excited for the wide career opportunities he will have with his degree. However, if he needs to move back to Colombia, Andr\u00e9s would be happy to work there as well. \u201cI can help develop the sports communication field there,\u201d he explains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Andr\u00e9s is excited to continue Emerson\u2019s Sports Communication program and would recommend it to any prospective students.
