Master of Arts - Tourism Management

Tourism is an increasingly important part of people's lives, and the tourism industry is one of the few global industries forecast to grow in the long term. Managing this rapidly growing industry to meet visitors' demands in a sustainable way is exciting and challenging. This long-established course will give students the knowledge, analytical abilities and skills needed to make a career as a tourism professional.

Students will study at the heart of London, one of the world's leading tourism destinations. Site visits, integrated in the course modules, will allow them to explore a wide variety of aspects of the dynamic tourism industry.

Annual student feedback for the course is very positive, with teaching, staff contract and course content receiving particular praise. This reflects the tourism team's efforts to provide a valuable and effective course as well as a supportive, friendly and stimulating environment for studies.

Members of the teaching team have published academic texts used by students of tourism at many UK universities.  Students will benefit from access to these texts – and the insights of these authors.  Furthermore, staff teaching on the course are active researchers, and their teaching is informed by both their own research and their engagement with industry.
