As one of the largest and most rapidly growing industries in the world, both the business and the human aspects of tourism have become well-established fields of study. The department’s strong links with industry locally and internationally, gives students the opportunity to experience tourist destinations of all sizes within the private, public and voluntary sectors across the world. With destination marketing and economic impact at the heart of the course, students will undertake field trips and real-life cases to bring destinations to life. Designed to give students an understanding of the complexities and requirements of running tourism destinations, field trips also provide an insight into the benefits tourism can have on economic growth. **We guarantee that you will be made a conditional offer for a course at Swansea University. Subject requirements will apply. Please come along to our next Open Day or get in touch for further information.**

For details on each module’s assessment criteria, please consult the Module Catalogue within the School's web pages at http://www.swansea.ac.uk/som/. Typically, each module includes a written examination after the taught elements have been completed (so a 15 credit module taken in the first semester will be examined in January) and coursework or continuous assessment consisting of a number of assignments. Assignments may be individual assignments, group assignments, presentations, and business reports. Students thus have every opportunity to develop key-skills in the use of Information Technology to gather, coordinate and present information, and also their confidence in presentation. Typically continuous assessment might count for approximately 30% of the total mark, with examinations weighted at 70% but the proportion can vary considerably between modules.
