The Degree in Tourism answers the needs of a society like our own, in which tourism is one of the most productive activities of the service sector. The social importance of all of the sectors related to tourism has generated a need for professionals trained in management and planning. This training prepares them for both the development of tourism-related companies and for the promotion of the sector by public administrations.
This degree provides an education that anticipates the requirement for management and administration of tourism companies; the need for destination planning; and the call for the valorization of tourism products related to cultural, natural and sports resources and in particular, to all events linked with leisure and entertainment.
Three subjects are taken in a second foreign language (French, German or Italian).
The student must choose the same language for the three subjects. In the last academic year, students must choose from one of the academic training pathways. This will allow them a deeper understanding of the specific skills of one of the fields of work relevant to the degree.
This degree has transferable (shared) credits with the rest of the degrees offered at the Faculty of Economics.
You can study a part of this degree in English.
This degree is also given in the private affiliated Florida University Education Centre.
