Millions of tourists are on the move every year, and the global tourism industry is big business for those skilled in providing the perfect experience.

The BA (Hons) International Tourism Management degree investigates the issues and techniques relevant to the planning and management of international tourism. It is designed to enable students to build knowledge through tourism-specific and business-related modules, while optional modules can be chosen to reflect personal interests and career aspirations.

The University of Lincoln has also developed a partnership with Guizhou University in China to run the Guizhou University Collaborative Programme in Tourism Management.

Placements

All full-time students on this course have the opportunity to undertake a year-long work placement after their second year. Students are expected to source their own placement, and tutors can provide support during the process if required. Those who choose this route do not pay tuition fees for that year but will be required to cover their own travel, accommodation, and general living costs.

Lincoln graduates have been employed in culture and heritage management, local tourism development, and by airlines and independent tour operators. These have included Sonesta Resort Hilton, Xerox, and The Bear Grylls Adventure.
