Why choose this course
The global hotel industry is being revolutionised by major shifts in consumer demand and buying power. In a post-pandemic world, the international hotel industry is seeing a significant increase in demand for new experiences and business models. Innovative thinking, sustainable consumption and production, and digital leadership are at the heart of our International Hotel Management MSc.
Typically, as a student on our International Hotel Management MSc, you won't have a hotel background at an undergraduate level as our MSc programme provides you with critical knowledge and professional skills you need to become a successful hospitality industry leader. A combination of our academic expertise, cutting edge research and impressive network of industry connections will help you develop an advanced level of understanding of hotel operations and strategic management of global businesses needed to succeed in this dynamic sector.

What you will study
Dynamic management practices are crucial to managing global hotel companies successfully. We will facilitate your development in the competencies and skill sets that global organisations in the hospitality business are looking for, focusing on operations management, financial management, marketing services, managing people and technologies, service delivery systems and strategic management practices from around the world.
Hotel management will be looked at from ethical, financial, sustainable, cultural and technological considerations, through research and practice towards the creation of effective systems.
You’ll learn about the current contexts and challenges facing international hotel managers in their decision-making and how to consider the value of alternative approaches to business. By the time you graduate, you will be equipped to take on the challenges and make your mark on the industry.
