The modern tourism industry is one of the largest highly profitable and most dynamically developing sectors of the global economy. With the rapid development of the tourism industry, the professions associated with it are gaining more and more popularity.
If you choose this direction, then why may the BMA program be of interest to you?
This is the only program in Latvia and the Baltic that trains specialists in two areas: in tourism and in the hospitality field. Often, applicants choose tourism, but when graduating, they prefer to work in the hospitality industry and vice versa. We give them an opportunity to choose. A good preparation allows our graduates to feel confident.
Students are offered a rich curriculum that, to professional knowledge and competencies, provides thorough training in management, marketing, advertising and PR. It also expands employment opportunities.
Students have the opportunity to go for a practice during summer break, both in Latvia and abroad. Our students work in hotels and travel companies in Greece, Spain, Italy, Cyprus. There are offers from other countries as well. In addition to pocket money, students receive free meals and accommodation. And students with good performance in studies and public work can also receive a European scholarship.
Our students study in a multicultural and multilingual environment, which enables them to work successfully outside Latvia with foreign colleagues, partners and clients. There are many opportunities for them to learn foreign languages and improve communication skills.
Our students study in excellent classrooms, with great opportunities to improve their abilities and talents. Desire is what matters!
Many of our students are engaged in scientific work, participate in conferences with their own papers. Together with supervisors, they write scientific articles and learn to defend publicly their ideas and projects.
Often students find work by profession already during their studies. They have the opportunity to learn quickly about new vacancies, and we, on our behalf, help to combine work and study and develop an individual training plan so that students can finish their studies on time.
With good results during the studies and excellent knowledge of English, students have the opportunity to study under the exchange program at other universities in Europe or under the program of two diplomas with partner universities from different countries. In general, for those who study well and are active in public life, discounts on studies are provided.
And the most important fact is that amazing lecturers work for us: knowledgeable, creative, energetic! They love students, support them in all endeavors, work, regardless of their personal time. The teaching staff of this level is very rare in our time. We work closely with colleagues from different countries who regularly come to us with guest lectures.
