MN-2058 Contemporary Issues in Tourism

Tourism is often said to be the world¿s first truly global industry and is also considered to presently be one its largest in economic terms. Tourism is therefore a very important economic sector in many regions and countries. At the same time, tourism is a service-based and people-oriented business, in which the `product¿ is co-constructed by a wide diversity of consumers and producers in the complex context of a tourism destination. As such, tourism carries with it impacts on the cultural and social fabric of those destinations, as well as on their natural environment. The latter is also impacted upon by the means of transport tourists use from their home to their destination, around the destination, and then back home again. As such, tourism is replete with controversial issues that have significant implications for society, economy and environment. The purpose of this module is to take a number of contemporary issues related to tourism and to consider them critically.
MN-2062 Visitor Experience Design and Management

Today, consumers search for extraordinary and memorable experiences. However, rapidly changing marketplaces and technologies present opportunities and challenges to tourism mangers, who must create, deliver, assess and redesign impactful visitor experiences. This module will examine the dynamics of tourism experiences, and equip students with relevant skills to design and critique design and management initiatives for visitors from multiple cultural contexts.
MN-2564 Tourism in Practice

Tourism development brings a range of marketing challenges and impacts that may be observed first-hand. This course combines a discussion of tourism development and marketing with a visit to a tourism destination. Students will investigate the destination development and interact with relevant tourism operators, marketers and policy makers. This will provide students with the opportunity to observe destination management issues first hand and to assess career options in the sector. There is also opportunity for students to practice research skills in this environment.
MN-3012 Marketing Research

The Marketing Research course examines both the theoretical and practical sides of the marketing research process. Overall, the module is designed to equip participants with the knowledge to be able to design and implement theoretically sound marketing research projects in a commercial environment.
MN-3060 Tourism Planning

For people engaged in the tourism and recreation industries decision making at local and larger spatial scales normally takes place against a background of some form of strategic planning. This module will begin with an examination of tourism's contribution to development goals, and some of the issues surrounding this. This module will then introduce students to the components of planning and will look at the techniques and tools available to the planner and will consider examples of documentation associated with strategic planning. It will also critically assess the contribution of tourism to broader development objectives.
MN-M595 Business Project Foundations

As preparation for your business project, this module focuses on how to successfully undertake a business project and develops associated career enhancing employability skills. Case studies on related business topics (drawing on concepts covered in other modules) will be used to illustrate this application within the lectures and practical workshops. Across the sessions in this module, students will be provided with the necessary knowledge and skills to enable them to embark on their business project. Practical seminars will provide the opportunity to apply and evaluate what is learned in the lectures.
