Master’s Programme
Sustainable Regional and Destination Development

Locality is a vital component for any economic activity and development. Other topics related to economic activities are urbanisation, clusters, infrastructure and mobility, among others. In many regions tourism is the driver of prosperity in the community. Successful regions require a clear development strategy, and destinations need clear branding. These areas are complex and demand the involvement of local communities and the consideration of regional environmental factors as well as global developments. The students of this programme learn the methodological basics for implementing studies in this field..
