I am a travel and tourism student and I am interested in several tourism streams. What should I do?

A number of universities, community colleges, and vocational schools feature degree programs specific to the growing field of travel and tourism. Degree programs in this field cover topics that include hotel management, hospitality services, and travel booking as well as business and finance concepts. List of courses: Principles of Travel and Tourism This course gives students the basics in navigating the travel and tourism industry. Students in these classes learn about the issues related to business and resource management, tourism's effect on the world economy and the political impact of tourism. Some introductory travel and tourism classes detail the many positions available for travel and tourism students; these include hotel manager, airline manager, event planner, travel agent and others. This class is mandatory and is usually taken during freshman year. Hospitality Management This class provides students with a background in how to properly manage all aspects of travel, lodging, food services and event planning. Incorporating information technology into the hospitality industry is also discussed. This class also discusses the importance of leadership in the workplace and focuses on strategic decisions about business operations. This class is required and is taken during the freshman or sophomore year. International Tourism International tourism courses teach students about how global issues can impact the industry. Topics covered include politics, economics, sociology, environmental concerns and international tourism management. Good luck Hope, this will help you.
