MSc Hospitality & Major Events Management

Overview

Hotel and venue operations, revenue management, and the planning and safety of large-scale events and exhibitions. Imperial University in Cairo delivers this award fully online across the Arab region. There is no campus. English is the administrative language of the award; Arabic-medium tracks require additional language evidence. Assessment is identity-checked. This is an academic Master's award; where a field has a licensing or registration route, that remains a matter for your professional body or regulator. You will work through the material as a practitioner-researcher: applied methods, real or anonymised cases, and a supervised capstone or dissertation as the final component. Faculty mark whether you noticed the constraints a slide deck usually hides. MSc Hospitality & Major Events Management is taught as one award, not a list of unrelated modules. The published length is 4 Semesters (2 Years), and the credit total is 36. Students move from Tourism Systems & Destination Economics through Tourism Systems & Destination Economics; Heritage, Ethics & Community; Data & Insight for Visitor Management; Destination Management & Governance; Hospitality & Attraction Operations; Major Events, Crowds & Safety, and finish on Tourism & Heritage Capstone. Each course has a question, a method, and a submission. In this field, students describe how people, records, and decisions move through one service, and separate cause from harm. Reading is a pathway description, an incident summary, and an information standard. The artefact a marker expects is a brief a service manager could use, with the evidence attached. The award is built so that a graduate can do the following in practice: Manage a destination, attraction or event through its operational realities Balance the visitor economy against heritage, community and conservation Run revenue, marketing and digital distribution for the sector Teaching assumes the student can read a source, attempt a problem before the seminar, and revise after feedback. Attendance at live seminars is part of the design. The capstone or final course must use the methods of the earlier courses; a project that ignores them does not pass. This course does not confer a licence to practise nursing, medicine, or any other clinical profession. The pages for each course name the topics that are examined. Those topics are the syllabus. A brochure line is not a substitute for them.

The programme carries 36 credits across four assessed modules. Delivery is tuition-free aside from the examination fee. Transcripts use letter grades and a GPA scale consistent with Imperial University in Cairo awards. No professional-body logo is used in marketing to imply endorsement.

ALX71701	Tourism Systems & Destination Economics Tourism Systems & Destination Economics (ALX71701) is a 3-credit course on MSc Hospitality & Major Events Management, with 30 notional learning hours. By the end, students can describe how people, records, and decisions move through one service, and separate cause from harm, using Tourism Systems & Destination Economics as the working context rather than a generic management example. The course is taught in three movements. First, students establish the terms and the decision the course is about. Second, they apply the method to a case, dataset, text, or design and compare it with a weaker alternative. Third, they revise the work after feedback and state what the conclusion cannot support. Preparation uses a pathway description, an incident summary, and an information standard. Seminar time is for the decision, not for reading the materials aloud. Assessment is a brief a service manager could use, with the evidence attached. A pass requires a clear method, evidence a marker can check, and an explicit limit. Credit is not awarded for summary alone. This course does not confer a licence to practise nursing, medicine, or any other clinical profession.

Sustainable & Regenerative Tourism

Sustainable & Regenerative Tourism (ALX71711) is a 3-credit course on MSc Hospitality & Major Events Management, with 30 notional learning hours. By the end, students can describe how people, records, and decisions move through one service, and separate cause from harm, using Sustainable & Regenerative Tourism as the working context rather than a generic management example. The course is taught in three movements. First, students establish the terms and the decision the course is about. Second, they apply the method to a case, dataset, text, or design and compare it with a weaker alternative. Third, they revise the work after feedback and state what the conclusion cannot support. Preparation uses a pathway description, an incident summary, and an information standard. Seminar time is for the decision, not for reading the materials aloud. Assessment is a brief a service manager could use, with the evidence attached. A pass requires a clear method, evidence a marker can check, and an explicit limit. Credit is not awarded for summary alone. This course does not confer a licence to practise nursing, medicine, or any other clinical profession.
