Postgraduate Programmes

For those looking for a complete career change, we offer tailor-made courses that will answer students' specific requirements.

We offer three possible programmes, ranging from 6 months up to 2 years of post-graduate studies, depending on the student's motivation, time and previous experience.


Postgraduate Programme Descriptions

Postgraduate Certificate and Diploma Programme
The objectives of this 6-month to 1-year programme are to offer candidates that hold a degree in a different field, the opportunity to practice and learn the fundamental skills and knowledge that are necessary to enter the hospitality and tourism industry. Employers particularly appreciate the varied backgrounds of post- graduate students, who bring experience, culture and diversity to an industry that lives on creativity and professionalism. Recognizing the varied backgrounds of our students, the programme allows a certain degree of flexibility and custom design. For this reason, some candidates choose the Certificate or the more complete Diploma track.

Postgraduate Higher Diploma
The Post Graduate Higher Diploma in Hospitality Management is a 2-year programme geared towards people who wish to change their career direction. Candidates must already have a bachelor degree in a field unrelated to the Hospitality Industry, or at least 3 years of work experience. This programme addresses the needs of the Hospitality Industry, an industry which constantly seeks ambitious and professional people with a strong and diverse academic / work background. This very thorough programme allows students to gain in-depth knowledge and skills through balanced didactic learning, practice, and application of management skills within the Hospitality Industry. One great benefit this programme offers is the wide choice of topics during the 3rd semester topics that not only address the student's particular area of interest, but also allow him/her to extend his/her professional skills.
