What it is

The first year gives a basis in mathematics, private law, political economy, economic history and geography, and business economics. The later years specialise in the legal governance of territory and tourism, statistics and mathematics for market research, economic models of tourism and cultural industries, urban, regional and transport economics, and marketing, financial analysis and corporate strategy, with digital skills for collecting data and communicating with tourists. Teaching includes labs, internships and a thesis. Graduates work as tourism and city development consultants, destination managers, tourism planners, hotel and hospitality managers, event organisers and economists in the public and private sector.
