What Is a Travel and Hospitality Degree?
The first thing that comes to our minds when we hear Travel and Hospitality is ‘people’. As the name of the degree suggests, it is all about customer service. Travel and Hospitality degrees prepare candidates to work in diverse working environments all over the world.
Even so, many people confuse Travel and Hospitality degrees with Tourism degrees. What is the difference between these two? The main difference lies in where the employees work. With a Tourism degree, you can work in a museum, national park and so on, whilst with a Travel and Hospitality degree you will work in hotels, restaurants.
This degree is shaped in such a way that candidates acquire skills about hotel management, food preparation and sanitation as well as human resources.

Mohammad ShamimOne of the best private universities in BangladeshBefore getting admitted to a public university, I started my Bachelor’s studies at DIU. I could experience this university for around 6 months because after getting admission to a public university I left it as bearing tuition fees seemed to be hard for me. Anyway, in this university, I found a good combination of research and theory in the course directed by highly experienced teachers many of whom have degrees from foreign high ranked universities. I loved the program Management there and other on-campus services. The course curriculum includes an internship for 3 months in any reputed institution in BD which is a very attractive part of this program. Besides, students have their own community network to connect with each other after graduation. they help each other to find a job in the desired fields. I love this university for both its infrastructural beauty and its efficiency in providing quality education.
