Dual Qualification Programme

Diploma in Tourism / Diploma in Hotel Management

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

INTRODUCTION

(back to top)

This is the first academic year in which the Diploma in Tourism and the Diploma in Hotel Management have been imparted in the same centre: the 'University School of Tourism and Hotel Management' (EUTDH). It is the start of a new era of participation and coordination of the two courses which is the result of the positive synergy generated between them.
With this in mind, we would like to give all those students who have completed the Diploma in Hotel Management the chance to broaden their vision of the tourism sector by obtaining the Diploma in Tourism. Likewise, those students who have completed the Diploma in Tourism and wish to further their studies by specialising in the world of hospitality will have the chance to obtain the Diploma in Hotel Management after only one year of study, thereby gaining a dual qualification.
