Amman, Karak, Petra 

1. Course Objective 
• The Tourism Management Course is the ideal path for those who wish to work in the world of 
tourism and who want to strengthen both skills and knowledge of a large, complex and changing 
sector. The structure of the course can allow each descendant to build a profile that can be 
spent in different tourist and international contexts and that can therefore concern companies 
or institutions operating in incoming and outgoing tourism. The course aims to deepen the world 
of Tourism by approaching a multicultural and global study. Students will be able to acquire 
issues related to the management of tourism companies, accommodation companies, 
sustainability and environmental enhancement, as well as tourism policies in the sector and 
management of social media and tourism marketing. Finally, considering the importance of soft 
skills in the tourism sector, learners will be able to complete the course with an experiential 
study of the most requested transversal skills, which are essential for their performance and 
professional growth.  
• The Hospitality Management Course is a strategic element for the quality of hospitality 
services. The professional figure trained through this path plays a crucial role, as 
he represents the first point of contact with the customer, and therefore equipped with excellent 
soft skills and a good predisposition towards meeting needs. In addition, the transversality of 
the profession finds an outlet in all those environments where the representation of a 
coordinator and supervisor of the reception areas is necessary.  The aim of the course is to 
guarantee an exit level rich in soft and hard skills that can be guarantors of professionalism in 
the various areas of the tourism sector, including hotels, starred restaurants, but also major 
events, congresses, fairs and more.
