EMTM - your gateway to a global life
What?
The European Master in Tourism Management is a two-year world-class integrated programme aimed at qualifying graduates to deal with the huge challenges and opportunities facing international tourism.
Tourism is a social and economic phenomenon, which calls for a holistic approach to tourism education where broader aims of the industry and society are explicitly addressed in the curricula.
The European Master in Tourism Management (EMTM) provides students with a far-reaching and integrated understanding of the multiple disciplines and paradigms concerned with the subject, which are bound together through the framework of sustainability.
Where?
The EMTM is a fully integrated two-year European programme promoted and tailor-made by three university partners:
-
The University of Girona (Spain), known for its research and pursuit of teaching excellence in tourism product innovation and destination management;
-
The University of Southern Denmark (Denmark), internationally recognised for its research and education in the field of sustainable tourism development; and
-
The University of Ljubljana (Slovenia), renowned for its excellence in tourism policy design and tourism environmental management and economics.
The language of instruction is English.
How?
Students follow a mandatory mobility scheme, starting the first semester at the University of Southern Denmark in Kolding, Denmark, where they are introduced, at an advanced level, to the conceptualisation of tourism development with particular attention to sustainability, strategic communication and economics.
Moving next to Ljubliana, Slovenia, for the second semester, students learn about policy instruments, indicators and management tools available for tourism policy and strategy design, with emphasis on environmental issues in tourism development.
Spending the third semester in Girona, Spain, students will be able to understand and effectively manage organisational networks, consumer relations and innovation processes.
The fourth semester is exclusively devoted to the completion of the Master thesis.
