**Why study BSc International Hospitality and Tourism Management (Top-up) with us?**
Our course gives you the skills, knowledge and hands-on experience to succeed in this exciting and dynamic profession.
Our BSc in International Hospitality and Tourism Management opens up career opportunities in a wide variety of industries, from hotels and accommodation to airlines and cruise ships, resorts, attractions and tour operators, and everywhere in between.
Designed to build on your foundation or HND qualification, you’ll study alongside students from around the world to develop the marketing and event management skills needed to thrive in a hospitality management career. You’ll also learn the theoretical approaches to policy and planning, and study the strategic management and decision-making processes that are at the core of the international hospitality industry.
The programme combines practical modules that are industry and employability focussed, with modules that take a critical perspective which is rooted in politics, economics and sociology. Students have a range of optional modules to choose from including heritage tourism, urban tourism, viral and digital marketing, customer service management, and creative branding.
**Build your hands-on practical management skills**
Based in London, you’ll be at the centre of one of the world's best tourist cities, which means you’ll have access to all the attractions, experiences, and opportunities the English capital has to offer. You’ll be part of our thriving Business School, which means you’ll get plenty of support from our international academic team who bring vast experience from all areas of the tourism and hospitality industry.
During your hospitality degree, you'll take on modules such as event management where you'll plan and execute all aspects of an event. Other modules like strategic management or tourism marketing ensure you can analyse business problems and evaluate potential solutions. All of this allows you to build a portfolio for the initial steps in your career and opens the possibility for students to take a post-graduate qualification in a more specialised aspect of tourism.
The programme is TMI accredited and has a variety of assessment methods aimed at boosting student employability such as presentations, or video storytelling.
Another key part of the course are visits to working hotels and event spaces such as the Marriott hotel and StoneX Stadium, home of Saracens Rugby Club, so you can experience what it's like to work in a fast-paced environment.
**Get the support you need to succeed**
When it comes to support, you’ll be matched with a Personal Tutor to get the backing you need. You’ll also get support from our Student Learning and Graduate Academic Assistants who have personal experience in your subject.
This is the ideal first step towards a management career in tourism or hospitality.

Top job areas of graduates

Management, finance and business roles are common, but it's a good idea to ask tutors what previous graduates taking specific courses went on to do when you're at an open day.

Top job areas of graduates
This course sits in a wide group of smaller subjects that don't necessarily have that much in common - so bear this in mind when you look at any employment data. Most graduates took a hospitality, events management or tourism-related course, but there are a group of sports and leisure graduates in here as well who do different things. Events management was the most common job for graduates from this group of subjects, and so it’s no surprise that graduates from specialist events management courses did better last year than many of the other graduates under this subject umbrella - but all did about as well as graduates on average or a little better. If you want to find out more about specific job paths for your chosen subject area, it's a good idea to go on open days and talk to tutors about what previous graduates went on to do, or to have a look at university department websites.
