Sports Equipment Technology
Sports are in high demand. From international professional sports to recreational sports for health-conscious amateur athletes, the desire to test one’s physical skills and discover one’s abilities and limits is apparently deeply rooted in human nature. Accordingly, there is now a great deal of financial clout behind these athletic activities. The sale of sports equipment generates some € 6 billion of revenue a year in Austria alone. The sporting goods industry is responding to this development with increasingly extensive research and ever more complex technologies. Companies within the industry are looking for specialists who can combine sports science with technical and medical expertise.
