The rapid growth of domestic and international tourism has led to an increasing demand for graduates who have a thorough understanding of tourism in its wider social, cultural, economic and political contexts. The study of tourism involves predicting the future – working out what people will want from their leisure and travel pursuits and how those wants are implemented and managed. You will also study the structure of different tourism organisations, aspects of hospitality and leisure, and the environmental and economic impacts of tourism operations.
