Program Description

Discover all there is to know about planning, marketing, and running successful events and tourism experiences through interactive, hands-on learning in a fun environment. There are core modules you need to cover, such as in marketing, management and professionalism. You also have the option to choose modules in specialist areas that allow you to tailor the course to your own interests and career direction.  There is a strong focus on addressing industry challenges facing the sector today including sustainability, effective use of technology, and entrepreneurship. With a considerable amount of live project work, you get to see ideas become reality, allowing you to constantly reflect to improve and professionalise your skills. Assessments are very much based on your future working environment, and include posters, videos, debates and event delivery.   The course will take either three or four years, depending on placements or study abroad, and is filled with opportunities to apply your learning and kick-start your career.  As an international course, you will gain an awareness of, and sensitivity to different cultural backgrounds and influences through working/studying abroad and global case studies.  We actively support you to go out on an industry placement, study abroad or do an internship (including the latest online bite-sized digital experiences) to help you find your direction and to boost your CV to secure your first graduate role.    

 Where you'll study

Your teaching is on our modern de Havilland Campus, with our 24/7 Learning Resources Centre, featuring open and private study spaces. You also get online self-study materials to further support you. There are dining options, a bar, and a recreational space on campus where you can shoot some pool or play video games. It also houses Hertfordshire Sports Village, which features a gym, swimming pool, coffee shop, and a climbing wall. Discover the Enterprise Hub, a vibrant destination where local firms and students work and learn in comfort. The Student Union bar and additional facilities are only a 20 minute walk (or short bus ride) away at our College Lane Campus. Student housing is available at both campuses. 

What will I study?

You are encouraged to develop your skills from the start, planning and delivering experiences, on this fun and practical course.  There are core modules you cover, such as in marketing, management, and professionalism. You also have the option to choose modules in specialist areas that allow you to tailor the course to your own interests and career direction.  In your first year, you’ll develop a firm foundation in the industry and key areas such as marketing and professional skills as well as an introduction to live experience planning.  In your second year, you’ll delve deeper into key aspects such as sustainability, technology and risk assessments with the opportunity to look at areas of specific interest. Your final year brings all your skills together with immersive live projects and the chance to work with local businesses. You’ll organise a student conference as part of your final year project. The 2022 Hertfordshire Business School Grad Ball was organised by Events students also running the events society. Not only was it a lot of fun for all who went but it provided an excellent CV boost for organisers. It was a direct contributor to many getting the Go Herts Awards alongside their degree. There are also opportunities to further enrich your personal development through our Go Herts certification program, placements, internships, study-abroad and Future Success networking events.
