During the academic year 2006-2007, The University School of Tourism and Hotel Management is celebrating the 10th anniversary of the Diploma in Tourism.

Together with the Hotel Management Degree, the history of our school is inseparable from the Diploma in Tourism. They both highlight the fact that we can provide a solid foundation which, despite its newness compared to other centenary university degrees, provides solutions to one of the most demanding economic industries in our country.

For this reason, the EUTDH has launched a commemorative campaign that commenced with the inauguration of the academic year and the presentation of the commemorative poster that will serve as a framework for the activities that we will be carrying out throughout the year.

We would like you and everybody to share our satisfaction for this 10th anniversary.

Thank you.
