Sustainable Tourism Management

First MPS in Sustainable Tourism Management in NYS

Launching August 2023

The Sustainable Tourism Management Master’s program develops advanced skills in management, communication, community engagement and leadership designed for the rapidly expanding opportunities and challenges in international and domestic travel and tourism.

The program’s destination stewardship theme incorporates the ecological, economic, and social implications of ethically and equitably structured travel and tourism by integrating the priorities and practices of international sustainable development.

The program maximizes the integrity and resilience of natural ecosystems and destination cultures and communities, while providing equitable and durable economic impact that benefits all providers, collaborators, and host community members.
