International tourism alone moved more than one billion of tourists in 2013, with an estimated turnover of 2 billion Euro per day (UNWTO). The players of the sector are medium and large private companies (hotel chains, tour operators, web agencies) and public bodies (local and regional governments, Destination Management Organizations, transport hubs) which select their strategies at the global le
vel, in a framework of tight competition between tourism systems and in an age of strong innovation in the fields of finance, management, ICT and tourists care. Join the 10th edition of TEaM, our international degree programme which 1st edition started in Fall 2012 and which builds upon the experience of the previous Laurea Magistrale in Economia e Management del Turismo.
