Description:

Tourism is a vibrant international industry, which is the perfect lens for considering management practices and responding to the ever-changing business environment. Manchester is England’s second-largest international city tourist destination. It's the perfect place to study and be immersed in a thriving, multicultural tourism destination. On this course students will learn about modern tourism practices from industry leaders. It has been designed alongside high-profile organisations such as TUI, Association of British Travel Agents (ABTA), Qantas Airways and Visit Manchester. This well-rounded degree will prepare you for a range of careers – at home and overseas.

There are option units from Year 1 giving students flexibility and choice with their studies. Languages can be studied at all levels enhancing cultural sensitivity and awareness, highly relevant for this global and vibrant industry. In the second year, there will be a chance to travel abroad to a tourist destination and undertake fieldwork. The choices in the second and final year help to develop a focus on the industry sectors that are of personal interest. Students can choose to thrive in international opportunities afforded by placement and study abroad. In line with learning a language, this will all help in accessing career opportunities overseas.
