Swiss Higher Diploma

Four Years to a BA(Hons) Degree and Swiss Higher Diploma with concentration in Events & Conventions Management

A more vocationally focused route to the BA(Hons) degree is also available and allows students to complete the same International Hospitality and Tourism programme in four years, allowing for more applied hotel operations and applied hotel management theory & practice together with specialised modules in Events & Conventions Management. 

Whereas the management aspects of the programme are developed using highly advanced British theory and practice, the operational and vocational training aspects of the programme are based on the unique, 100-plus-year-old tradition of Swiss hospitality education. 

At the end of the third year of the vocational programme, students receive the Swiss Higher Diploma in Hotel Management with a concentration in Events & Conventions Management and this gives them direct entry into the final year of the BA(Hons) International Hospitality and Tourism Management course.

The following courses comprise this programme

• Certificate in Hotel Operations
  (Year 1 / Semesters 1 & 2)
• Hotel Management Vocational
  (Year 2 / Semesters 3 & 4)
• Swiss Higher Diploma in Hotel Management with concentration in Events & Conventions (Year 3 / Semester 5)
• BA(Hons) International Hospitality & Tourism Management
  (Year 4/ Semester 6 & 7)
