Study Travel & Tourism Abroad

To some, the idea of travel is simply hopping on a plane and seeing where it takes you. For those studying travel and tourism, travel is a multi-faceted subject that can take you from the slopes of the Alps to the beaches of Southeast Asia. Moving your education in the field of travel and tourism out of the classroom and into diverse regions studded with museums, natural landmarks, colorful cuisine, and thousands of other travelers, will give you the practical knowledge needed to be successful in a tourism career and experience only available through studying abroad.

A Guide to Studying Tourism Abroad

Why Study Tourism Abroad

There is no better place to study travel and tourism than in another country where you can learn firsthand how travel is experienced in different parts of the world. The field of tourism is very fast-paced and, with developing technology, is constantly evolving, making the subject a very exciting one to study abroad. 

Tourism is also a very broad subject, as it can encompass anything from travel planning to hospitality to the culinary arts to tour management. The advantage of studying tourism and travel abroad is that specific areas of the world concentrate on certain areas of tourism, providing you with both very specialized studies and hands-on experience. Tourism study abroad also gives students the chance to immerse themselves in the field in nations where the economy is largely dependent on the tourism industry.

Additionally, studying tourism abroad will assist you in future graduate schools or job applications, as it demonstrates that you have the ability to adapt and truly understand other cultures and people, a necessary quality in the tourism field and in today’s global economy in general.

At BLCU, academic rigor meets cultural heartbeat.

December 01, 2025by: Mateo Cruz - CanadaProgram: Learn Chinese at Beijing Language and Culture University
10

At BLCU, academic rigor meets cultural heartbeat. The curriculum is a carefully built bridge from textbook proficiency to living fluency. What sets it apart is the ecosystem—the campus is a microcosm of global China, where a coffee break conversation can pivot from particle physics to the best Peking duck in the city. The professors are custodians of the language, teaching you not only how to speak, but how to listen to the history in each character. You don't graduate with just a certificate; you graduate with a new lens.
