Core topics of the Tourism and Leisure Management degree programme

Tourism is an umbrella term for travel. It’s not only one of the largest, but also one of the fastest growing industries worldwide. Furthermore, it’s considered to be one of the world’s most significant sectors for employment.

In addition to the travel industry, the hospitality and leisure industries are also elements of tourism.

There are a number of specialised areas in the tourism and leisure industry as well. These are covered in our bachelor programme in the Specialised Tourism Studies module. To give you a few examples: event management, tourism with an emphasis on sport, culture and health, and sustainable travel.
