Higher Education : Travel & Tourism

Travel and tourism is a huge industry, employing millions of people. That means thousands of new jobs all around the world in sales, marketing, management, public relations and customer service, covering everything from airlines to tourism development, events, hospitality, tour operations and visitor attractions.

The professionals who work within this industry need to be flexible, adaptable and able to work with a variety of people and in a multitude of settings.
