Centre for Contemporary Hospitality and Tourism Fieldtrips

Budapest

Our Professional Culinary Arts and Culinary Management students have visited Budapest and, through visiting various restaurants, markets and food halls, students were able to gain an understanding of the cultural significance of food in the country and the role it plays in society. Students were also able to research which restaurants are popular and learn about the famous chefs of Hungary, as well as any ethical, moral or religious beliefs that impact on the food offer which forms part of the hospitality in the country.

Florence

A recent visit to Florence by our Professional Culinary Arts and Culinary Management students saw them experience a market tour around Mercato Centrale, including tasting local foods and beverages. Students also had the opportunity to participate in a pasta and ragu making class.

Lisbon

Our Event Management and International Tourism Management students have the opportunity to visit Lisbon where they can visit the well established tourism and conference centres. Previous students were also able to gain insight into the 2024 developments for Lisbon.

International Hospitality Management students have visited the Four Seasons Ritz Hotel in Lisbon where they were able to learn about hospitality operations and have an inspiring talk on leadership and management in the hospitality industry.
