International Tourism and Events Management

Tourism and events are among the fastest-growing sectors in the global economy (UNWTO, 2015) with destinations adopting event-led tourism strategies as a means to enhance location awareness and reputation and to bring about positive social and economic impact. This is an exciting time for events specialists and tourism specialists to combine their skills and become part of this movement.

Informed by industry demand and the vast array of job opportunities available, Glasgow Caledonian University's MSc International Tourism and Events Management course delivers the practical and technical experience that you need to maximise the opportunities this growing sector has to offer.

You'll enjoy a truly international experience, with the chance to network, volunteer and work in the industry with guest lectures from those currently leading in this sector.
