Bachelor in International Tourism Management (BA) - Cologne

International Tourism Management is the focus of this bachelor's degree. You could be forgiven for believing that you’ve got a good understanding of what tourism management entails.

The familiarity of booking a trip and experiencing a destination as a marketable entity seems almost second nature to us. However, even the shortest excursion often involves intersecting with various facets of hospitality, aviation, event, service, and hotel management. What’s more, tourism is directly affected by the environment – and vice versa.

Economic, ecological, political, and geographical factors greatly influence the touristic landscape. Complex and captivating, tourism management itself is an ever-changing adventure, and a fantastic industry to be a part of.

By putting the industry in dialogue with academia, our International Tourism Management team will help you answer such questions by evaluating the multi-vocal perspectives of different stakeholders. Most importantly, however, we invite you to reflect on your own involvement and discover how you can meaningfully contribute to the tourism of the future.

Tourism management operates within a multi-trillion-dollar industry. As one of the biggest global employers with the most international career opportunities, working in tourism could quite literally mean working anywhere in the world.
