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 through 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.
