Overview
Tourism is one of the most dynamic, global and demanding sectors in the world. Studying in this field stands for learning how to organize and manage trips and journeys, the principles of hotel and other accommodation service management, the principles of catering, tourism logistics, and the very essence of business, as well as its cornerstones. Tourism today is unimaginable without technology, thus, students learn how to use technology in business management and service delivery.
The study program “Tourism and Hospitality Management” offers the knowledge necessary in the field of tourism and hospitality, as well as provides the opportunity to practically develop skills in both – teamwork and in a multicultural environment, which is becoming a necessity in today’s globalization. During their studies, students learn to understand different cultures and ways of thinking, as well as develop critical thinking and the ability to express their opinions in a structured manner. These are the values that graduates can put into practice in their professional lives. Graduates of the study program receive not only a diploma of higher education, but also a certificate of participation in additional activities.
During their studies, students get to know the “backstage” work of many hospitality and tourism companies both in Latvia and abroad. One of the most valuable benefits is a study visit to the world’s leading tourism exhibition ITB Berlin.
