Tourism, hospitality and international business management courses have received an important benchmark of international quality, after being accredited by the European Foundation for Management Development (EFMD).
The Sheffield Business School (SBS) at Sheffield Hallam is one of only three institutions worldwide that have obtained EFMD accreditation for its undergraduate hospitality and tourism courses, and is one of only six institutions worldwide to have obtained this accreditation for a postgraduate international business course.
The MSc International Business Management, BSc (Hons) Hospitality Business Management, BSc (Hons) International Hotel Management and BSc (Hons) Tourism Management all received accreditation from the EMFD Programme Accreditation Scheme (EPAS). The scheme evaluates the quality of business or management degree programmes that have an international perspective.
The recognition means the courses will benefit from international partnerships, and students will have more opportunities to work or study abroad.
