The University of Arizona Wildcats basketball team aren't the only ones having a busy spring. 

Associate professor Ricardo Valerdi has been making the media rounds, talking about the economic impact of March Madness on Arizona and why a systems engineer is so interested in sports anyway.

And he's not slowing down this summer, either.

Valerdi will debut a new course during the first summer session. Catch a video preview of MGMT 359: Sports Analytics, which covers fundamental analytical skills necessary to be successful in the sports business. It's part of the Eller Sports Management Program, which Valerdi directs.
