Course content

MSc International Tourism, Hospitality and Event Management has been designed to provide you with the enhanced skills and knowledge which are necessary to support key decision-making within the international tourism, hospitality, and event industries. The programme is underpinned by a strong theoretical base across several contexts relevant to tourism, hospitality, and event management in contemporary international environments.​ A distinctive feature of this program is that it offers you opportunities to interact with current industry practitioners and therefore enables a hands-on approach.

The Advanced Project route provides students with additional learning in the areas of tourism, hospitality, and events management, with practice-based opportunities. Students will be required to complete two 30-credit Level 7 modules in ‘Service Strategy for Tourism, Hospitality and Events’ and ‘Experience Design in Tourism/Hospitality/Events’.
