Students are provided with a range of subjects giving them both strong practical skills and theoretical knowledge covering many aspects of the tourism, hospitality, and sport industries and related businesses. Admission to research programs depends on the quality of the undergraduate degree and work experience, plus the availability of a supervisor who is committed to the candidate’s chosen area. These areas are quite extensive and potential candidates should contact the school office or visit staff profiles on the school website for a list of research interests of staff. Before enrolling or re-enrolling, students should consult any supplementary information issued by the school.
