Felix Rottman
International Tourism Management, BA(Hons)
As an international student there were three main reasons I studied this course at the University of Brighton. Firstly, the School of Service Management is known to be one of the best places in the UK for this particular degree. We are lectured by distinguished academics in the fields of Niche and Sustainable Tourism.
Secondly, it is a truly international university which welcomes international students and allows them to meet one another through the numerous events organised by the International Students Society (ISS).
Thirdly, I was attracted by the opportunity of undertaking a placement year. This is something I believe will make me more competitive in the job market once I graduate. I have just finished my placement in The Gambia, West Africa, working for the number one Ethical Travel Destination in the world, Sandele Eco-Retreat - a priceless experience.
