BBA in Tourism, Hotel Management and Operations

Program Description

The 4-year Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) in Tourism, Hotel Management and Operations program builds on the curriculum of the 3-year Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) in Tourism and Hospitality Management program. In addition to providing students with state of the art management competencies and leadership skills, students will have a practical training experience in culinary theory and practice as well as restaurant and service management.

Furthermore, students have the choice between writing a bachelor thesis (recommended for students who consider entering a master program after graduation) or taking additional courses in advanced tourism and hospitality management or completing an additional internship of 450 hours.
