Bachelor in Tourism Sciences

The tuition fee is 1,058 USD per year.

Tourism Sciences is the study of how the tourism industry works, including how destinations are planned and marketed, how tourism businesses are organized, and how tourism affects local economies, communities, and the environment. The discipline typically covers tourism economics, destination management, marketing, and the cultural and geographic dimensions of tourism, along with an introduction to hospitality operations and sustainable tourism practices. Students learn how tourist demand is shaped, how destinations compete for visitors, and how tourism businesses and public agencies plan and manage tourism activity. This bachelor's degree in Tourism Sciences is offered by Università degli Studi di Roma "Tor Vergata" in Roma, Italy, and is taught in English. The program runs for three years, following the standard structure for a first-cycle degree in the Italian higher education system, and provides a broad foundation for further study or entry-level work in the tourism sector. Graduates commonly find roles in tourism boards, travel agencies, hotels and resorts, event organizations, and destination marketing, or continue their studies at the master's level in tourism management, hospitality, or business. Entry-level positions often involve destination marketing, tourism planning support, or operational roles within hospitality and travel businesses. Because tourism is shaped by economic, cultural, and environmental factors, coursework in this discipline tends to combine business and marketing fundamentals with study of the cultural and geographic context in which tourism activity takes place, preparing graduates for the varied nature of work in the sector.
