About Travel, Aviation & Hospitality
The travel and tourism industry is a vital part of the global economy and we can give you the essential skills to be a part of its future growth. Our real-life Boeing 737 aircraft cabin on campus will develop your aviation knowledge. Our experienced lecturers’ extensive industry links have secured many work experience opportunities leading to paid work and placements, with organisations such as Co-Operative Travel, for students who have also progressed into employment with major companies such as Premier Inn and Ramada Hotels.
