The Faculty of International Tourism, Sport Business and Hospitality Industry was opened due to the demand of the Russian economy and the community at large for professionals capable of meeting the challenges of the comprehensive hospitality, tourism sector and sports industry development. We are not training travel agency and sports sector company managers. Our goal is more ambitious and important. We are going to train a kind of 'business giants', that is, highly-qualified professional managers who have integrated development expertise and who can improve the tourism sector, sports and hospitality industry efficiency. Our graduates will always be in demand as they are the professionals who have a deep knowledge and understanding of social, cultural and human factors, their direct impact on the economy of the sector and investment project efficiency, have the ability to build efficient communications and resolve conflict with stakeholders.
