Hospitality Management Degrees in the United Kingdom

In England and Wales, hospitality management degrees are taught mainly in university business schools and specialist hospitality schools, as three-year honours degrees (often with an optional placement year), one-year master's degrees and research doctorates. Fees are published separately for UK (home) and international students. Scotland and Northern Ireland are researched separately.

Honours bachelor's degree (BA/BSc Hons)

Typically three years full time, or four years with an optional professional training or placement year; some universities also offer a final-year top-up and a foundation-year route. Example: Surrey lists BSc (Hons) International Hospitality Management at 3 years, or 4 years with placement. Source

Taught master's degree (MSc/MA)

Usually one year full time, with some universities adding an optional placement year or a longer part-time route. Example: Oxford Brookes lists 1 year, or 2 years in sandwich mode including a work placement. Source

Research degree (MPhil/PhD)

Research doctorates are offered through business schools; Oxford Brookes lists a full-time PhD of minimum 3 years in hospitality, tourism and events management. Source

Teaching languages. English is the language of instruction for the programmes found; universities set English-language requirements per course, for example IELTS 6.0 for undergraduate and 6.5 for master's study at several universities.

Admissions. Undergraduate applications are made through UCAS; the course pages found state UCAS tariff or A-level offers, with international applicants able to apply directly to the university or via UCAS at several universities. Master's applications are generally made directly to the university and ask for a 2:2 or equivalent. International applicants need a licensed student sponsor and must prove English to CEFR B2 for degree-level study before applying for a Student visa. Source

Nothing here establishes visa, work-permit or credit-transfer eligibility. Check current rules with the official sources below and with the institution.

In England, a degree is officially recognised if the institution can award degrees (checked on the Office for Students Register), if it is on the list of recognised awards, or if it is awarded by certain named bodies; in Wales the Welsh Government maintains a list of recognised bodies. The qualifications are placed in the FHEQ for England, Wales and Northern Ireland. The Office for Students Register could not be read by script during this research, so per-institution register status is not recorded. Source

Recognition is recorded with its scope: an institution, an authority to award a qualification, a program accreditation or an association membership are different things, and none extends automatically to another campus or partner.
