Bachelor of Tourism Management in Vancouver Canada | Capilano University

A tourism management degree expands your knowledge of worldwide concerns, effects, and obstacles within the tourism sector while equipping you to handle intricate scenarios. The curriculum focuses on sustainable practices, local involvement, worldwide awareness, and hands-on education, with specialization choices in hotel/resort operations or adventure tourism. With annual international travel exceeding 1 billion people, tourism significantly fuels the global economy. In Canada, tourism directly supports 1 in 11 jobs, while in British Columbia it injects over $17 billion into the provincial economy. Students are urged to participate in global learning opportunities through field schools, overseas study semesters with partner universities (typically during third year), or our academic exchange program featuring a Disney World internship.
