Overview

Travel and tourism are worldwide industries that continue to play an important part in both wealthy nations and developing economies. In many ways, they are businesses of adventure, but are also building global communities and creating wealth at every level. The industries also support many innovative specialist fields including eco-tourism and global volunteering.

This major provides training for people who want to operate at a senior travel and tourism industry level using substantial depth of knowledge of the industry and its managerial techniques. You will develop specialised skills and learn how to operate independently with responsibility for making strategic business decisions. Careers include tourism officer, travel consultant, destination coordinator and adventure tour operator.

Topics of study include tourism marketing, consumer behaviour, services marketing, communications and developing tourism products. The degree offers practical, vocational workplace skills and knowledge of the tourism industry together with a broader conceptual base that covers the principal areas of business necessary for senior level management.

The first year and a half of the degree is a combination of TAFE and University study while the last half of the degree is University only. Within the Bachelor of Business component of the degree, you can major in human resource management, management, marketing or public relations to complement your TAFE Advanced Diploma of Travel and Tourism Management.

You will also undertake a final-year capstone subject that lets you apply everything you have learned in collaboration with students from other disciplines. Plus, you have the option of applying for an internship to gain valuable work experience whilst receiving credit towards your degree.

You can specialise in a major by choosing from the following:
