About International Tourism Management With Marketing | BA (hons) in Leeds Beckett University

Course Details

Learn about the power of the tourism consumer and get ahead of the curve in tourism marketing by learning to recognise how and when travellers make decisions and what type of holidays they might wish to take.

Combine your passion for travel and exploration with a marketing focus. You will identify different customer segments to develop effective marketing strategies and campaigns aimed at the right audience, at the right time, and using the right platforms. You will gain an understanding of consumer trends – who wants what type of holiday, the types of holiday likely to be available in the future and the kinds of message consumers are likely to engage with.

You will acquire an understanding of sustainable tourism and development as well as the organisational structure and management of this ever-expanding field, helping you to learn how businesses operate and how skilled leaders can add to their success. You will also gain an insight into moral, ethical, environmental and legal issues, allowing you to make a valuable contribution to the tourism and travel sector.

In your second and third year, you will have the opportunity to further enhance your knowledge through specialist marketing modules and link your marketing work with innovative launches of new tourism experiences. In the final year, you will develop an entrepreneurial approach by working on live projects with key industry partners to create new solutions to real-life marketing challenges.
