Transcript of William International Hotel Management School and Glion Institute of Higher Education in...
Career progression that goes well beyond the hospitality industry; the William Blue Bachelor of Business has been developed to give you a broad understanding of the domestic and international business landscape in a hospitality, tourism and event industry context.
Hospitality ManagementHospitality is any situation where a host provides a service to a guest, and is traditionally related to food, drink or accommodation. Nowadays, hospitality goes way beyond this – today it’s the world’s largest and fastest growing industry. If you love people, a hospitality career could be just what you are looking for - this program gives you a taste of what a hospitality career has to offer.
Tourism ManagementThe world’s population is increasingly mobile, with many consequences for businesses, individuals and their environments. Travel – whether for business or pleasure – and its growing influence on the global economy, has led to tourism management being one of the most popular fields of study in Higher Education. This course will introduce you to tourism principles, corporate social responsibility, the tourist experience, how to market a destination and tour operations.
Event ManagementThe management and coordination of an event is a highly skilled and technical operation – and it is also big business. An event could include a large international conference, the annual Taste of Sydney food and wine showcase, a high profile society wedding or a charity dinner for 2000 people in a five-star hotel. This course will teach you how to manage and operate an event from conception, through to operation and post-production. With guided industry experience along the way you will acquire the theoretical skills and operational knowledge to stand out in this fast-paced industry.
Career Outcomes:Some of the possible career outcomes for a graduate of the Bachelor of Business are:
» Hotel Manager » Resort Manager » Event Manager » Tourism Manager » Operations Manager » Business Analyst and Consultant
