Tricia Vogel, '20
Master of Sports Administration
The MSA program at Upper Iowa has been very beneficial to me and future career goals. I have learned practical knowledge that can be easily applied to my goals of becoming an athletic director. The professors in the MSA program were all very helpful and provided a great learning experience for me. I am glad that I chose Upper Iowa for my MSA.
