Curriculum

Description of the programme

The focus initially deals with the basics of the individual management areas and concludes with case studies that already directly introduce the student to practical work. In this way, event concepts and practical case studies from tourism can already be worked on in cooperation with the lecturer before entering the profession.

Due to the international orientation of the industry, a semester or internship abroad is particularly useful here to gain insights and experience in other destinations.
