This Master’s degree is a conversion course – intended for students who have not studied the subject previously and ideal for graduates who would like to change subjects or career direction. It aims to establish your understanding of the principles of tourism marketing management, providing you with a framework to understand business development and marketing planning.
Specifically, it examines the relationships between the customer experience and marketing organisations, research planning, budgeting, marketing strategies and communication.
You’ll develop a critical understanding of contemporary issues in marketing and the ability to question current marketing patterns and trends. In that context, attention is given to the use of IT and social media in destination management and marketing.
The speed of change in the global tourism and hospitality industries means that students need to be kept abreast of contemporary issues. This is achieved through our close links with industry and an opportunity for students to engage in a full-time work placement. You can also undertake a semester abroad as part of your course. You can study in a range of countries worldwide at the end of the taught component of your Master’s degree.
This course is delivered by a team of research-active, internationally recognised experts with a wide range of industry and academic experience. This includes Professor Dimitrios Buhalis, who is known for his work on technology in tourism research, practice, and education and is one of the most-cited authors in the world on tourism marketing. This ensures that discussion in lectures and seminars is informed by both cutting edge research and practice.
