Tourists are looking for well-planned and smooth-running experiences that impress with high levels of customer service. Develop the knowledge and skills to design and deliver such experiences confidently.

 

This course emphasizes practical considerations alongside theory, providing numerous team-based opportunities to deliver experiences, whether on-campus events or local excursions.

 

Gain an understanding of tourism industry products, structure, logistics, marketing, and management from an international perspective.

Learn a new language (choose from French, Spanish, Mandarin, Japanese or German) to enhance your employability and cultural experience even more. If you study a language throughout the whole of your degree, it will be reflected in your degree title.

 

Apply theory to practice, honing employability skills, including customer service, and reflecting on experiences to further develop abilities.

 

You will enjoy field trips in each year of study, including a local destination in the first year, an optional international field trip (additional cost) in the second year, and a UK destination field trip in the final year.
