The course in brief

Presentation

The course is characterized by a strong professionalizing value and a direct relationship with the labor market of the tourism sector, which increasingly feels the need for qualified operators.
In particular, Tourism Sciences trains specific professional figures with theoretical knowledge and fundamental operational skills in the areas of tourism and cultural activities, promotion of territories and related business activities.

Learning by doing

Many of the teachings offer seminar activities, meetings with institutions and companies, and guided tours.
Laboratory activities for second- and third-year students allow for the development of transversal skills, such as the ability to work in teams and problem solving.
A number of agreements are in place to conduct internships with companies, institutions or associations in the tourism sector.

Professional outlets

The tourism graduate can hold operational and/or managerial positions in the administrative, operational and commercial functions of companies in the tourism sector or in functions related to the design, organization and promotion of tourism products and services.
