Tourism and Hospitality Management

Take your place in a billion dollar industry 

 

The tourism and hospitality industry is an exciting, vibrant and rapidly growing sector of economies around the world. In Nova Scotia alone, it is a $1 billion a year industry. A career in tourism and hospitality offers many rewarding avenues to explore. You can go into the planning and development of tourism destinations, or into growing environmentally friendly tourism and travel, or devising solid business strategies.  




You can also take advantage of opportunities in hospitality and go into the food and beverage industry, accommodations, sales, leisure management, tour operations, or the airline industry.

 

BBA with a Concentration in Tourism and Hospitality Management

You have the option of doing a concentration in tourism and hospitality management within the BBA. You must complete four full units of coursework in tourism and hospitality management. The concentration in economics provides you with the opportunity to learn more about the field of economics while also allowing you to take courses in other fields within your BBA program. You may combine the finance concentration with a second concentration in another business field, such as management, marketing, accounting, economics, or tourism and hospitality management. With a double concentration, you will gain a better overall understanding of more than one area of business.

It is not possible to do a major, or a minor, in tourism and hospitality management within the BBA. If you are interested in a career in tourism and hospitality management, or in completing professional credentials in the field, you may want to consider completing the Bachelor of Tourism and Hospitality Management degree instead of the BBA.
