The perfect foundation for senior managerial roles in this dynamic, thriving sector, our renowned BSc International Hospitality Management (with Foundation Year) course is one of the most prestigious qualifications in hospitality management and will open up a variety of exciting career opportunities for you, both in the UK and overseas.
Drawing on extensive experience of teaching, researching and working in hospitality management, this course combines specific industry-focused modules, a core foundation in business and management and, with our Professional Training placement programme, hands-on experience in real hospitality organisations.
Establishments run on campus by the School of Hospitality and Tourism Management will give you the opportunity to learn how to plan, organise, evaluate and manage successful hospitality businesses, including the School's Lakeside restaurant, private dining room and coffee shop.
This combination of academic theory, up-to-date industry knowledge and practical experience will kick-start your hospitality management career, allowing you to leave us as a professional ready to make an immediate impact in the field.
We’re always looking to make it easier to access the education we offer, so we have launched the option of taking a degree with a foundation year.
A foundation year is an extra year of study at the start of your course that leads in to a full degree programme. It’s a great option if:
- You don’t have the grades for a full degree course
- You have non-traditional qualifications or experience
- You’re starting university after some time away from education
- You’re looking for more support during the transition into university study.
During a foundation year you’ll learn about your chosen subject, develop your study skills and get used to university life. On successful completion of your foundation year, you’ll be ready to progress to the first year of your degree course.
As a foundation year student, you’ll be a full student of the University and part of our community. You’ll have access to all our campus facilities and support.
