A first needs analysis was performed on February 2017 when academic bodies at UNIPA met stakeholders with the specific aim to present the study plan of the master’s degree programme in Tourism Systems and Hospitality Management, so to ask them points of weakness and strengths, and, finally, to discuss a joint approach to plan and manage opportune actions to support students during their study path.
Several efforts have been made to identify specific needs at different geographical levels (local, regional, national, international). To define and structure the current study programme, a long and in-depth needs analysis was conducted and improved in the following years.
