PGA Golf Management Program

The PGA of America/PGA Golf Management program is a specialization within the Wall College of Business and requires a separate application process. The program is accredited by the PGA of America. PGA students can major in any area (accounting, economics, finance, management, marketing, hospitality, resort, and tourism management) and receive the PGA designation when they have completed their academic and PGA membership requirements. The PGA membership requirements include passing the PGA’s Playing Ability Test (PAT), completing 16 months of full-time internship work and completing all of the PGA’s educational courses. Enrollment in the PGA golf management program is limited, and it takes 4 1/2 years to complete. Additionally, extra fees are associated with becoming a member of the PGA of America. Only United States citizens and resident aliens are eligible to become members of the PGA of America.
