Learn how tourism is studied at Wageningen University by our integrated research and education: BSc Tourism & MSc Leisure, Tourism and Environment

Geschiedenis
Increasing numbers of people around the world are spending a growing proportion of their leisure time and money on tourism related activities. The economic and social impact of tourism services on the environment has grown dramatically in recent years, and this is expected to continue.
What motivates tourists to visit remote destinations? How does this travel affect local cultures and economies? And how do issues on sustainability, authenticity, identity and commercialisation fit into the picture? In different programs and research projects at Wageningen University address such questions in more detail: 
- The two-year MSc programme Leisure, Tourism and Environment at Wageningen University & Research pays special attention is given to concepts like landscape, space, place, locality, authenticity and sustainability.

- The three-year BSc Tourism is academic bachelor programme offered jointly by NHTV Breda and Wageningen University. This programme deals with developments in tourism and the interrelationships between tourism, the economy, society and the environment.

- The BSc minor Conservation Tourism combines tourism, international development and nature conservation with socio-spatial and policy analyses. The integral study of tourism practices is of great societal relevance considering the impacts ideas about sustainable, competitive and responsible tourism can bring to nature conservation and development of people's lives.
