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.
Experts say that it only takes six months for Travel and Hospitality graduates to find a job. The most frequent areas which display the highest number of job opportunities are catering management and hotel management. As a result of their flexible degree, 15% of the graduates choose to combine work with study to broaden their employability chances.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, this field will have an addition of 700 jobs, both in management positions and others.
Perhaps the most important benefit is represented by the growth opportunities. This degree will teach you about networking and developing your emotional intelligence, which are of utmost importance in this field.
This degree lasts for three years, out of which one year should be spent abroad. Usually, in the second year of their studies, students go abroad and study in a partner country. The whole idea behind this is to encourage cultural awareness and adaptation.
Additionally, some universities in the UK provide a compulsory internship during which students gather relevant industry experience.
Glion delivers a great and dynamic program with professors who have a solid professional experience. The field trips during the year delivers great insights about a metropolis hospitality market as London.

The campus has a chill atmosphere with equipped classroom.
For a such expensive school, the committees has ridiculous budget and the student life is poor, I was expecting so much more from this part.
I feel like the master does not worth that much, the administration lack of communication, organisation and clarity.
Overall, Glion master program is an efficient way to reach out fast the professional world with great skills, providing a network of quality.
There is Two semester and a 6 months internship.

The school does a great job at connecting with Alumni and getting students involved in the London community but much needs to be done by the students on their own and with their own efforts. Most of the professors and tutors and do a good job but there are some that are not great at teaching. They may have great jobs and do well in their industry but they are not great at teaching to a class. The visa option for non-UK students are challenging so ask a lot of questions about this during your application process. The building is good but not anywhere near central London, so be aware of the location. The Masters in International Hospitality Business is interesting but needs to be more effort on work in the real world in the classes.

View moreI chose the programme I studied because it was complete, only requires two semesters, and given the option to do an internship during six months. It was the optimal solution for me to complete my education by choosing to specialise in hotel management.
I acquired a lot of knowledge about the various departments of the hotel industry from the very interesting and helpful courses. The professors were quite fascinating. The majority of them run their own businesses, mentor us in the workplace, and offer career advice.
Because of the small size of the school and the strong sense of community among all of the students and faculty, the school had a highly positive school spirit.
Despite a lack of funding, student life is quite busy with committees and events.
The school has a large international student body, and I spent the entire year interacting with individuals from other countries and conducting group projects with them. You can learn a lot about yourself and the global business environment from this, which is really rich.
The tiny size of the school is a drawback. Less than 200 pupils are enrolled. Transparency might be lacking among the administrative employees. In relation to the tuition costs, the funding is insufficient for the committees. For its subpar quality, student housing is costly. The campus is located a long way from the heart of London.
