MN-2062 Visitor Experience Design and Management

Today, consumers search for extraordinary and memorable experiences. However, rapidly changing marketplaces and technologies present opportunities and challenges to tourism mangers, who must create, deliver, assess and redesign impactful visitor experiences. This module will examine the dynamics of tourism experiences, and equip students with relevant skills to design and critique design and management initiatives for visitors from multiple cultural contexts.
MN-2564 Tourism in Practice

Tourism development brings a range of marketing challenges and impacts that may be observed first-hand. This course combines a discussion of tourism development and marketing with a visit to a tourism destination. Students will investigate the destination development and interact with relevant tourism operators, marketers and policy makers. This will provide students with the opportunity to observe destination management issues first hand and to assess career options in the sector. There is also opportunity for students to practice research skills in this environment.
MN-M054 Marketing Tourism Experiences

This module considers the challenges of marketing tourism experiences and the benefits to be gained from developing and implementing well-informed and well-designed marketing strategies. Marketing plays a key role in any organisation that measures it success through identification of the specific needs of its target audience(s) and to guide the design and delivery of products to meet those needs. In the tourism context, it is increasingly being recognised that these products are not only service-based but also highly multi-part, complex and co-created, involving the delivery of experiences to a wide audience within the context of multi-stakeholder tourist destinations. This implies the need to engage in effective relationship marketing, with both guests and hosts. Meanwhile strong brands are typically needed to gain the attention and loyalty of an increasingly well-informed, sophisticated and fickle tourist customer base. The international dimension is also increasingly important in marketing tourism experiences and marketing strategies need to incorporate multi-cultural understandings.
MN-M582 Tourism Study Tour

Tourism development brings a range of challenges and impacts that may only be observed first hand. This course combines a discussion of tourism development with a visit to a tourism destination. Students will investigate the destination development and interact with relevant tourism operators, marketers and policy makers. Students will also interact with the host community and develop tools for community-based tourism in a problem-based learning scenario.
MN-M593 Digital Tourism

Digital tourism can be defined as the design, implementation and application of information technology solutions and e-commerce in the field of tourism. It includes the analysis of the processes involved (such as `peer-to-peer¿ sharing), the implications for market structure, conduct and performance, customer relationship management and other business elements that can be transformed by digital technology. Digital or `smart¿ technology is also used in the delivery of destination experiences and the use of digital assistive technologies for tourists with disabilities.
