The Indian tourism and aviation industry has also shown a remarkable upward growth from past few years. This the fastest growing sector has also resulted in curving unemployment thereby generating ample amount of employment opportunities in the country. Today tourism is the largest service industry in India, with a contribution of 6.23% to the national GDP and providing 8.78% of the total employment.

IATA, the official trade association of airlines operating worldwide has also acknowledged the potential of Indian aviation sector and projected a high growth trajectory of this sector in India. Therefore courses for producing skilled manpower for this sector are much required. I am not so aware about other universities, but I can say that This course at Lovely Professional University is one of the most demanding course among students. Following are the Highlights of this programme: The course gives in-depth knowledge about air transport, airport operations, financial accounting, passenger forecasting, marketing, airport planning, etc. It includes subjects like financial accounting, business communication, cost & management accounting, airline marketing management, Cargo Introductory course, airline & airport management, etc. The students pursuing this course have strong managerial skills in aviation management. The course also teaches them to have a strong sense of service to passengers, good communication, and interpersonal skills. The course prepares students for various job opportunities available in the aviation industry, from managing, marketing, passenger forecasting, and other such services. The students are equipped with skills that are required to manage the proper functioning in the airport and also the airlines. Along with managing, the aviation industry also requires branding. Since convincing people to buy costly services is a challenge. Therefore BBA and MBA students are highly required. I hope this helps. All the Best. !
