Hospitality, Events  & Tourism

# Field of Study: Hospitality, Events & Tourism

Great with people? Have an eye for detail and accuracy? Love travelling? Can handle stress and manage conflict? If you’ve answered yes to these questions, then perhaps you should consider the hospitality and tourism industries as a study option.

With tourism contributing around R103,6 billion to South Africa’s GDP, there is great opportunity for growth and, with that growth, increased opportunity for employment. Boston’s range of programmes and courses in hospitality and tourism will equip and train you for this exciting and developing industry and will set you up for careers in hospitality management, tourism reservation and front-of-house officer, hotel and catering operations, to name a few.

Boston also offers events management courses.
