Colorado State University and Broncos Partner to Create the Denver Broncos Institute [VIDEO]

The Denver Broncos and Colorado State University are teaming up to create The Denver Broncos Sports Management Institute. This program will debut this spring by offering three courses to select CSU undergraduate students. The classes will count toward a newly developed minor in sports management at Colorado State, pending faculty council approval.

Students will benefit from a variety of course offerings developed by Colorado State faculty and take part in hands-on experiences and opportunities with the Denver Broncos organization. The program will include internships with the Broncos, guest lectures from management and case studies developed in coordination with the team.

Courses Offered This Spring

• Foundations of Sport Management
• Inclusive Sport Organizations
• Sports Marketing

The Instructors

Foundations of Sports Management and Inclusive Sport Organizations will be taught by Dr. Albert Bimper, senior associate athletic director and assistant professor of Ethnic Studies. Bimper was an all-Mountain West offensive lineman at CSU before playing one season with the Indianapolis Colts.
