Q.1 What is benefit of tourism studies & its career scope important for us?

Ans.The Bachelor of Tourism degree provides an in-depth understanding of the interactions between different aspects of the tourism industry and its natural, social and cultural environments. The degree integrates concern for the host or destination community and the process of tourism planning and development in the context of ecologically sustainable development.

The degree considers the relationships between tourism and management systems, mechanisms for regional and community planning and development and the role of tourism as a social, cultural and economic phenomenon. You will be confident and competent to make a significant contribution to tourism and tourism planning, and sensitive to the needs of tourism, tourism destination communities and the industry.

The Tourism Management degree is conducted in close liaison with tourism organisations and professional bodies, and local governments who actively promote and manage tourism at destinations as well as tourist attractions.

The rate of remuneration largely focuses on individuals who have either worked in previous tourism-related role and as such has some working experience, or has just completed a formal qualification. These jobs can be found in hotels, travel agents, tour guiding and on cruise ships or planes.

After 10 years in the industry many hotel management staff will have progressed to more senior positions and can earn anywhere up to $65,000. Tourism management staff can earn about $64,000 a year while events managers can expect to earn between $60,000 and $70,000 annually. Tourism provides an interesting and varied career choice, and opportunities regularly arise for travel both interstate and internationally. There are also positions available that cater for all skill levels and as such it is a very popular career choice.
Professionals like tour management staff and event managers also have the opportunity to open their own businesses which can significantly improve their earning potential. Wages for business owners in tourism vary, but salaries range from $70,000 to $110,000 per year.
