Testimonial *International Hospitality & Tourism Management

Two of our Alpine students,

Stamatis Cheimarios from Corfu and Spiros Karagogeas from Thessaloniki,

did their first internship in Brussels, Belgium, at the Courtyard by Marriott Hotels.

Courtyard by Marriott, Brussels

"One year ago I was being interviewed by Mrs.Hofmann in order to join Alpine Center. Now I work for one of the largest Marriott brands, Courtyard by Marriott in Brussels.

Literally my second interview, after the first of Alpine, was the one that offered me a job in a very demanding, but also rewarding, hotel chain abroad. From the first moment I stepped into Courtyard, I realized the significance of the lessons and recalled the advice of my lecturers in Alpine. Especially the importance of smiling. Mr Koumantakis has a favourite moto: "Find a solution''. Management is all about finding solutions, which is thoroughly tought in Alpine; how to solve problems in the most efficient way on every occasion. It is better to teach someone how to fish, than occasionally provide him with fish.

I would like to invite Alpiners to take the big decision and do an internship abroad and why not Brussels! You have to be brave like Spyros was. He can confirm that it was a fantastic start to his carrer!"

Master's Program: International Hospitality & Tourism Leadership

Accelerated 12-month Master’s Degree in International Hospitality & Tourism Leadership,

which can also be offered on a part-time basis for the busy professionals

by Alpine Center

Alpine’s MA in International Hospitality & Tourism Leadership, validated by the University of Wales, UK, is unique because it is the only one of its kind in Greece and one of only a few in the European Union.  Another unique aspect of the programme is its research emphasis on hospitality industry leadership behaviors culminating in the design, development and completion of a 20,000 word dissertation. 

“A dissertation not only tests a student’s ability to master research concepts and protocols, it also challenges a student’s capacity for critical thinking and disciplined independent study.  Almost all students find the dissertation the most creative and meaningful aspect of their programme of study,” according to Dr Michael Lefever, Alpine’s Academic Dean.
 

 

 

The aim of the programme is to develop in students a functional knowledge of leadership within the international hospitality and tourism industry.  This demands innovative approaches and the operation of an advanced functional capacity.  Another aim is the critical exploration of the complexities of the industry with advanced levels of theoretical and research knowledge.  The purpose of these aims is to equip graduates of the programme with the ability to critically analyse industry sectors from differing leadership and functional perspectives.

Alpine’s MA graduates enjoy high employability because they are equipped with transferable skills that allow them to seek careers in all segments of the service management industry including information technology, banking, communication, consulting, human resources, education, sales and marketing, finance, and entrepreneurship.
 

Testimonial

 

“Alpine’s Master’s degree in International Hospitality and Tourism leadership was my 3^rd post-graduate degree (Juris Doctor and MBA).  What makes Alpine’s programme truly unique is a solid grounding in the knowledge areas plus developing your ability to think both critically and creatively.  Alpine’s learning environment is enhanced tremendously by the collegiality of staff who truly care about providing a rich learning experience for each and every student.  Alpine quickly became my “home away from home” and I have made many lifelong friends here.  Thanks to Alpine I was finally able to focus my career path allowing me to eventually create my own consulting firm in Russia, with continuing guidance and assistance from Alpine staff.  Alpine opened many doors for me and it was at Alpine that I finally found myself.”
