    Bachelor Programs in Leisure Studies

    A bachelor's degree is an undergraduate academic degree. It is awarded by colleges and universities for the completion of a course of studies that can range anywhere between three and seven years. The completion of this degree is required before earning a master’s or doctoral degree.

    What is a Bachelor in Leisure Studies? This type of program offers a wide range of studies that includes both theoretical and practical knowledge. In addition to gaining skills specifically related to leisure and tourism, such as planning vacations, designing attractive destination services and products and organizing leisure events, more general studies relating to marketing, advertising, economics, management and psychology may also be included in the degree. Examples of possible areas of concentration include hospitality and catering, sustainable tourism management, and spa and wellness manager.

    Students who complete a bachelor’s degree in leisure studies should have a well-rounded education. The skills gained in psychology can aid in working with people in all facets of life. Additionally, the ability to organize complex events and design attractive services has the potential to enrich the student’s own quality of life.

    As mentioned above, this type of degree program may vary in length. A shorter program will therefore cost less than a longer program.

    There are many possible job opportunities available to a student with a degree in leisure studies. For example, the studies undertaken throughout the program may qualify the student to be a licensed bartender or a youth camp leader. Other work may be found as a ski instructor or a tour manager. Even fitness instructor and advertising agent are possible job opportunities for a degree-holder in leisure studies.
