October 11, 2006

    CHUR, Switzerland, Oct. 11 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ -- St.
Moritz, Davos, Arosa -- three resounding Swiss tourism
destinations. All three towns lie in the canton of Grisons
(Graubunden), the capital of which is Chur, home to the
University of Applied Sciences Chur HTW Chur, founded in
1963. Approximately 1,400 students may choose from five
Swiss federally approved and internationally recognized
Bachelor programs. The Bachelor of Science in Tourism
degree program in particular is proving very popular
internationally.

    The HTW Chur Bachelor of Science in Tourism is designed
to appeal to individuals from around the world who are
interested in pursuing a comprehensive qualification in
tourism which dynamically combines theory with practice, in
a country associated with excellence in education, a
profound depth of historicity in tourism, and a uniquely
attractive environment.

    Very good English skills, both spoken and written, are
a must, as the entirety of this 3-year full-time degree
program is conducted in English, delivered by a highly
qualified and internationally experienced faculty.
Content-wise, emphasis is laid on an integrative approach
to tourism management, on a careful balance of exploration
and investigation of key tourism-related management
principles on the one hand, and cutting-edge general
management and leadership issues on the other.

    The University of Applied Sciences HTW Chur may be
fairly small, but it nonetheless offers all the advantages
of a youthfully vigorous institution of higher learning
which is very much in tune with international trends and
developments in education while ascribing to excellence,
both quantitatively and qualitatively. In the latter terms,
significantly, classes are of a manageable size, allowing
students to contribute actively and learn efficiently while
benefiting from the unique networking experience afforded by
an international student body.
