Among the program’s benefits, are a strategic partnership with Costa Navarino, entailing specialized workshops, field trips and internships and also series of events, talks and filed trips in collaboration with key tourism players, as well as a well-organized internship process, strongly supporting the development of a professional network and increasing considerably the employability of students upon graduation.
