**Why study Spanish and Adventure Tourism Management at Aberystwyth University?** By choosing to study the BSc Spanish and Adventure Tourism Management course with us you will explore the development, operation and impacts of both domestic and international adventure tourism. Your studies will focus on contemporary issues facing the industry including changing market trends, challenges facing destinations, how to manage tourism in a more sustainable way, and how to effectively market the sector using contemporary methods. For the Spanish elements of the course, you will have timetabled intensive linguistic classes where you will concentrate on the following principles: listening, reading/writing, oral and translation. Alongside your studies, you will also receive four hours of linguistic and grammar classes per week. Spanish at Abersytwyth University is a vibrant, supportive and close-knit community which means that you will benefit from the unique approach to language development. All of the language tutors are native speakers or experts in the relevant target languages. We know our students by name and not by number. The Adventure Tourism Management element of this degree scheme is accredited by the Tourism Management Institute (TMI). This means that you can be confident the course will provide you with the knowledge, understanding, skills and experience that will fully prepare you for a career in adventure tourism management. A key feature of the degree is that alongside classroom-based learning there are regular day and overnight field visits both in the UK and overseas which enable you to explore adventure tourism in practice as part of the learning process. Finally, a wide range of student assessments including the production of a business plan, web pages, field research, critical reviews, presentations and reflection develop your professional skills base and competence which are further complemented by the transferable professional skills developed in other core modules. **Learning and Teaching** You will study core modules in each year of the course and you will also choose modules from a selection of those on offer, according to your own personal interests - see the course profile on our website for details.
