On completion of this degree students will be able to apply the appropriate knowledge, understanding, skills and attitudes for successful careers in the field of tourism and events and explain the concepts of tourism and events in an international context, and demonstrate a broad understanding of its role in relation to the arts, culture, environment and/or heritage of a place.

This degree prepares graduates for employment in a variety of positions in a highly dynamic and diverse international industry. Potential occupations may include tourism development officer, ecotourism manager and festivals and events coordinator; potential employers may include tour companies, museums and heritage sites and art galleries and exhibition centres.
