Graduate Diploma in Tourism and Hospitality Management

Graduate diplomas are intended to provide the equivalent of a major in a subject area that is different from your first degree’s major. You may be eligible if you haven’t studied for a degree before if you can demonstrate an interest in the subject area and a satisfactory academic ability.

A graduate diploma is a more in-depth version of a graduate certificate, is studied at the undergraduate level, and can be completed in the equivalent of one year (two semesters) of full-time study, or in some cases, extended part-time study.

Tourism and hospitality are one of New Zealand's fastest-growing export industries, and it can take your career to new places.

This subject will prepare you for an exciting global career managing tourism or hospitality businesses or events, in an industry that's focused on finding out what visitors want, and satisfying their needs. It's your ticket to work anywhere in the world!

You might even decide to become an entrepreneur and start up your own tourism or hospitality business.
