Courses in Tourism

Tourism is one of the most dynamic sectors of the economy and covers the design, promotion and management of travel, destinations, services and activities linked to hospitality and the discovery of places. Master's programmes in Tourism are aimed at graduates in economics, languages, humanities, geography and communication and at professionals who want to grow in an international and constantly changing sector.

The programmes include tourism management, destination marketing and destination management, tour operating and travel agencies, cultural and sustainable tourism, food and wine tourism, event organisation, revenue management, tourism digital marketing, management of cultural and environmental heritage, tourism legislation and project management. Lessons combine theory, business cases, workshops, field visits and internships at companies, public bodies and destinations.

A master's in Tourism lets you develop skills in designing products and itineraries, learn about markets and traveller behaviour, learn to promote a destination with digital tools and manage services and resources with attention to sustainability. Many paths also strengthen language knowledge, relationship skills and teamwork.

Professional prospects depend on the starting profile and the chosen specialisation and include roles such as destination manager, tour operator manager, tourism product designer, marketing manager, event manager and consultant, at agencies, tour operators, destination promotion bodies, accommodation facilities, transport companies and consulting firms. Practising some professions, such as tour guide, requires specific licences provided for by law.

The recovery of international travel, interest in authentic experiences and growing attention to sustainability are reshaping tourism and increasing demand for well-prepared professionals.

Many master's programmes are compatible with working life thanks to part-time options, weekend lessons and online paths.
