Course Overview
The MA Tourism, Environment and Development programme aims to provide students from a range of backgrounds, with an advanced critical understanding of the interrelationships between tourism, environment and development with special reference to the distinctive political, social and economic environments of the South, where tourism can be of great economic, environmental, social and political significance. Key benefits: The programme is a stimulating and enriching experience for students, not only because of its unusual approach to the study of tourism but because it attracts students from different countries, with different academic backgrounds and experience. There are around 20 students on the programme, an ideal size for interactive teaching. Students usually get to know each other well during the year at King's. Students are encouraged to carry out fieldwork for their dissertations. This normally proves a challenging and an extremely rewarding experience. Students have been successful in gaining relevant employment following the programme. Located in the heart of London.
