Sports Product Management Alumni

The Sports Product Management program has a reputation for producing exceptional graduates who thrive in leadership roles in the sports and outdoor product industry.

90 percent of our alumni work around the world in large and small brands, including Nike, adidas, Under Armour, New Balance, On Running, Hoka, and Specialized, as well as SmithOptics, Hydroflask, and Outdoor Research. The program has an active alumni association, and graduates regularly give back through mentoring, guest speaking, and offering jobs and internships.

Your time in the program may be over, but that doesn't mean our support for you is over. We are always here for you.

In addition to the Sports Product Management Alumni Network, below are resources and information available to help you—our alumni—stay connected, network, and pursue the lifelong learning that helps propel success.

UO Portland

The UO Sports Product Management program is launching a new Industry Workshop series, and we're starting with one of the strongest signals we heard from industry.

Across our conversations with product, merchandising, and innovation leaders, one theme came up repeatedly: teams today have more data, dashboards, and AI tools than ever, yet many still struggle to translate consumer insights into clear, compelling direction that informs product briefs.

That's why we built an event designed specifically to address that gap. Insights-to-Brief Excellence: The FRAME Method is a two-day hands-on workshop designed for product and merchandising teams who want to see an initial idea through to its final endpoint as a product story.
