Parks, Recreation and Tourism Management

What is Parks, Recreation and Tourism Management?

In today’s fast-paced society, recreation and leisure are more important than ever to our physical and mental well-being. Parks, Recreation and Tourism Management (PRTM) students learn to create and facilitate sustainable and affordable experiences in local and global communities by utilizing best business practices in programming, marketing and budgeting. Our students graduate prepared to make a difference in people’s lives by creating quality recreation and nature-based programs, education and events that provide leisure, enhance community and address societal concerns—such as physical health, juvenile delinquency and economic sustainability.

Our students gain real-world experience through hands-on classes and internships. Students benefit from partnerships with local and state agencies, nonprofits and a network of parks in the greater Raleigh area. Our college is home to the NC State Tourism Extension Office, which is committed to boosting economic and community development efforts in rural North Carolina. Our students have the opportunity to gain professional and leadership experience by assisting this office with projects in the areas of agri-tourism and micro-entrepreneurship.

Our Parks, Recreation and Tourism Management program is accredited by the Council on Accreditation of Parks, Recreation, Tourism and Related Professions (COAPRT).

Concentrations

• Recreation and Park Management  focuses on environmental education, outdoor recreation, parks planning and management and conservation of parks and other natural resource areas.
• Tourism and Event Management  focuses on recreation facility management techniques, fiscal management, facility and site planning, and recreation programming and administration.

Parks, Recreation and Tourism Management Curriculum

• Semester by Semester Plan for Recreation and Park Management
• Semester by Semester Plan for  Tourism and Event Management
• Popular minors include Business Administration, Environmental Education, Journalism, Nonprofit Studies and Psychology.

Internships lead to jobs.

Prior to graduation, students complete a 400-hour internship at places like the Jimmy V Foundation, YMCA of the Triangle and Yellowstone National Park.

Why are Parks, Recreation and Tourism Management graduates important?

Our Parks, Recreation and Tourism Management graduates help plan, organize and lead sports tournaments and special events, such as arts, music and holiday festivals, which generate not only direct revenue from fees and charges, but also significant indirect revenues to local and regional economies through hospitality, retail and transportation.

Tourism is one of the world’s fastest growing industries and is a major source of income for many countries and local communities. Our alumni play a critical role in supporting a thriving economy and the more than 1.1 billion people who travel globally each year.

Our graduates help create, improve and promote places for youth and adults to be physically active, which results in an increase in residents who exercise at least three times per week and provides positive lifestyle choices to youth.

Leisure Management

Let’s speak about leisure activities such as sports and culture but from an academic perspective. Students will improve their abilities to identify the role of sports & recreation as well as art and culture for the economy but will observe the impact of both industries on tourism in particular. They focus on the consequences of changes in society and how these impact both fields of leisure management. Students learn how sports and culture effects tourism planning but will also critically analyze and interpret developments, e.g. sports or culture tourism and the role of marketing for leisure activities. Appropriate management strategies will be applied.

Marketing II

Students examine the important issues facing service providers and the successful implementation of a customer focus in service-based industries. Topics include an overview of services marketing; understanding the customer in services marketing; assessing service quality levels and aligning the delivery of services; the people who deliver and perform services; managing demand and capacity; and promotion and pricing strategies in services marketing.

This module provides students with the opportunity to undertake research projects on specific research questions related to their course.

Students will critically investigate issues cognate to their programme of study. The aim will be to make proposals or recommendations for the future and / or a contribution to extant theory.

Students are expected to utilise appropriate investigative techniques and standards of data collection and analysis as they write their postgraduate research-based dissertation.

The dissertation will be 10,000 words in length.

The dissertation module has the following aims:

1. To facilitate a detailed investigation of one area or topic within the subject field;

2. To develop a thorough analysis and synthesis of theory, policy and practice in relation to the chosen topic;

3. To provide an opportunity for critical reflection on the research topic.

The expectation is that students will undertake research in areas of interest to them that is in context to their chosen course; the research supervisor will be allocated by the subject area within which the course is located.

This module is one of three triple-weighted module alternatives open to students (alongside the dissertation and the consulting report). The module provides you with the opportunity to showcase your professional skills in the execution of business-related tasks and experiential learning in the form of a work placement. When executing business tasks, successful practitioners are able to critically evaluate organisational matters and apply their knowledge to contribute strategies, ideas, recommendations and solutions that add value to their organisation. Furthermore, successful practitioners actively develop and shape their own behaviour, capabilities and identity. By critically reflecting on their experiences in work, they are able to develop their own capabilities and skills, and have the ability to understand how they personally add value to an organisation. It is the development and application of these capabilities in a professional context that is explored in this module. The 1st week of the yearlong Workplacement programme will introduce students to the module and to the first task, the production of a substantial management report that helps to investigates a specific organisational opportunity or issue. This is a significant independent project, where you determine the subject to be investigated and the methodology to be followed. Your project is an ideal opportunity to seek out and draw upon a wide range of knowledge, and for you to demonstrate how this underpins any final conclusions and recommendations. Your project will help you demonstrate your ability to think and act independently when executing a complex and challenging task. The remaining period of the module is spent in the work placement with an employer, which you will have secured during your time on programme (or before). This practical experience will allow you to explore and test your own professional competence in a specific working environment. You will maintain a Professional Development portfolio of your experiences and will, ultimately, be able to articulate your understanding of how you personally add value in a professional context. Again, you will be expected to draw on a wide range of knowledge to help evaluate and explain your experiences. Educational Aims This module aims to:

• Allow you the opportunity to carry-out an in-depth project where you can integrate the knowledge and professional skills you have gained throughout your programme. • Ensure you are able to identify and utilise different types of knowledge to influence your thinking or action. • Help you develop robust business research skills and an ability to formulate new ideas and solutions through the analysis of primary and/or secondary data. • Allow you to explore your own skills, character and identity within a professional environment and to identify key attributes that will aid long-term success in your chosen career field. • Facilitate your development of good reflective practice, ensuring models and concepts can be used effectively in the critical evaluation of your performance. • Ensure you learn how to integrate knowledge, experience and reflective practice to continually develop your professional skills and competence.

Please note: • Students are responsible for applying for opportunities and to engage with the Module Team/Work Based Learning teams to assist them. • The suitability of any opportunities will be assessed by the Module Team/Work Based Learning Team and all placements must meet Health and Safety requirements for Higher Education Work Placements. Those studying on a Student Visa will only be able to complete a work placement if it meets UKVI monitoring requirements including: approval of the placement dates and hours by the Placement Officer prior to starting the placement, submission of weekly timesheets for the hours undertaken, signed by their line manager/supervisor and continued engagement with the Placement Officer as well as the International Student Support and Compliance Team.

• spring semester - Wednesday afternoon

This module will focus on the concept of e-commerce within aviation management and the impact of the digital age will continue to have on the strategic activities of airlines and airports. The start of the e-commerce revolution was back in 1995 with the first innovators including Alaskan Airlines and British Midland developing their first website booking engines. Since this time the global online travel sector has grown to generate more than half a trillion dollars in revenue.

Airline e-commerce in all its forms is projected to grow significantly as we move into the 21st century. The ‘e’ story is about the continuing evolution of internet-based technologies and the proliferation of new internet-based applications. This development is shifting and enhancing the power of consumers and airlines to a more direct relationship and minimising the power of the intermediaries (travel agents). A particular focus on the new types of airlines and airports that are exploiting the e-commerce agenda and how the legacy carriers are having to adapt to these new sales and marketing dynamics.

• autumn semester - Wednesday afternoon

The field of corporate social responsibility has practically transformed our world and reoriented the way corporate entities conduct and perceive their operational activities. Corporate managers and those who represent corporate entities are expected to always behave ethically. Modern societies now expect that solutions to our social and environmental problems cannot only be the prerogative of nation governments, businesses of the 21st century have a lot to contribute when finding solutions to these problems. The demands modern stakeholders put before corporate entities have continued to increase; tomorrow’s managers need to know how to meet these demands. Some scholars have in fact argued that corporate social responsibility has drawn our attention to some of the excesses which globalisation has brought unto the corporate scene in the 21st century. We have seen some unacceptable practices which have accompanied globalisation and consequently made the job of CSR and what it advocates much more difficult. Many things have been made a lot more challenging for everyone because of this. We cannot ignore the adverse impacts of these excesses. There are several unacceptable practices in the form of injustices and human rights abuses, extreme poverty in several nation states both - emerging and even some advanced nations, environmental degradation, some irresponsible and reckless practices by some corporate leaders and terrorism on a very large scale. In recent years, a number of social, economic and environmental problems have continued to cause concern to us all, for example, climate change, waste management and irresponsible use of our depletable resources just to mention a few. Sustainable Development is a buzzword in CSR; both corporate and individual citizens still need to demonstrate that we are serious in executing what sustainable development means to us, what it requires from us all and how the needs of future generations of all inhabitants of this planet would be sustainably met; these are issues tomorrow’s managers would need to know how to embed in corporate strategies. This module aims to lay the foundation on how modern managers should address these and other CSR related issues.

Note: If there are not sufficient student numbers to make a module viable, the School reserves the right to cancel such a module. If the School cancels a module it will use its reasonable endeavours to provide a suitable alternative.

Operations and Technology Management is core to two MSc Pathways, MSC International Business Management and MSC International Business Management with Project Management.

A business adds value through its operations, but only in combination with others in the value network or eco-system, critically linked by the use of technology. Matching internal operations capabilities to changing market (and regulatory) requirements, whilst responding to a tidal wave of data from suppliers, customers and digital platforms involves operations in strategy, design, planning and control, supply chain, improvement techniques like lean but also the technology to connect and join up the dots to capture value.

The module aims to equip students with a broad understanding of operations and technology management that will make them stand out from their peers through being able to grasp how value is being created. The potential for AI and robotics to further increase the use of technology in the operational domain is already clear, whether using AI in legal processes or in robots that flip burgers, an understanding of the links between technology and operations is critical for anyone aspiring to be a business manager, owner or entrepreneur. Analysis is the core of the module, for example through process mapping, and problem solving using both case studies and other active learning exercises.

On successful completion of this module:

• You will understand the basis of the value Operations and Technology Management creates in any organization in any sector
• You will be able to recognize the key concepts and principles of operations and technology management that need to be implemented to support that value creation approach.
• You will be able to critically assess various techniques of product, service design and improvement, deploying a contingent approach to what works best and where
• You will be able to apply appropriate Supply Chain Management techniques in the light of your new knowledge of the scope (and management of) of inter-organisational co-operation
• You will be able to evaluate the necessary trade-offs that have to be made between operations management performance objectives and achievable performance

Moscow’s growing appeal for business tourism: India prominent player

In 2023 alone, moscow welcomed 3.7 million business travelers, marking a 7% rise from the previous year..

Moscow is rapidly emerging as a key destination for business tourism, with a significant increase in the number of business tourists visiting the capital. In 2023 alone, Moscow welcomed 3.7 million business travelers, marking a 7% rise from the previous year. Among the leading nations contributing to this growth, India stands out as a prominent player in the non-CIS category.

 Recognizing the importance of fostering partnerships and showcasing Moscow’s potential as a MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions) destination, the Moscow City Tourism Committee organized the Shaping MICE Future Conference in Delhi. The event aimed to introduce Indian MICE industry representatives to the diverse offerings of the Russian capital.

 Anastasia Popova, Deputy General Director for International and Industry Cooperation, emphasized Moscow’s established reputation as a hub for business tourism on the global stage. She highlighted the city’s mission to demonstrate to Indian partners the wide array of opportunities for organizing MICE events, coupled with existing tourist programs.

 At the conference, industry experts from Russia and India delivered presentations and insights into the future of MICE events in both countries. A detailed overview of Moscow’s MICE potential was presented, alongside an analytical report on the outbound MICE market in India. Panel discussions and brainstorming sessions enabled participants to assess current market dynamics and develop recommendations for enhancing MICE cooperation.

 Representatives from Moscow’s MICE industry, including Destination Management Companies (DMCs) and hospitality partners, actively participated in the event. B2B negotiations facilitated the exploration of new partnerships and collaborations within the Moscow business ecosystem.

 Dmitriy Saraykin, co-founder of Global Transfer Provider i’way, highlighted the significant increase in demand for transfers between Russia and India, indicating growing interest from both sides in exploring business and leisure opportunities.

The conference served as a platform for the Moscow City Tourism Committee to engage with MICE industry stakeholders and prioritize incoming event requests. Indian participants gained insights into Moscow’s safety measures and attractions, fostering potential partnerships with Russian counterparts.

Mudit Mathur, director of Tours DeliteIndia, shared optimism about Moscow’s prospects as a top-choice destination for Indian tourists. He emphasized the importance of collaboration and strategic initiatives in tapping into the Indian outbound market.

Furthermore, the conference addressed the demand for unique MICE venues, such as museums and theaters, to enhance participants’ experiences. Offbeat locations like the State Historical Museum and Moscow Planetarium are gaining popularity, enticing business travelers to return with their families as leisure tourists.

In addition to the conference, initiatives like the Moscow MICE Ambassadors Program are driving growth in tourist traffic. The program, launched in collaboration with NIMA (Network of Indian MICE Agents), aims to certify representatives of the Indian market as ambassadors for promoting Moscow as a MICE destination. With plans to expand the program to 200 ambassadors by the end of 2024, Moscow is poised to further establish itself as a premier choice for business tourism.

The Shaping MICE Future Conference underscores Moscow’s commitment to fostering collaboration and innovation in the MICE industry. With its diverse offerings, strategic initiatives, and collaborative efforts, Moscow is well-positioned to cater to the evolving needs of business travelers from India and beyond.

Moscow City Tourism Committee organizes conference for Indian MICE market stakeholders

Recognising market demand, the Moscow City Tourism Committee organized a conference for representatives of the Indian MICE industry, to introduce them to the tourism strengths of the Russian capital. MICE stands for Meetings, Incentives, Conferences and Exhibitions, and is a type of tourism in which large groups, usually plan things well in advance.

The event took place on April 19 in Delhi and brought together over 100 participants from MICE agencies of both countries, corporate customers, representatives of the travel industry in Moscow, Aeroflot and the Indian branches of Sberbank. Business tourism is one of the most promising directions for Moscow.

In 2023, the capital was visited by 3.7 million business tourists - 7 per cent more than in 2022. And India remains one of the leaders among visitors from non-CIS countries in terms of the number of business travellers. "The Russian capital as a centre of business tourism and corporate events is already an established and a strong brand in the international arena," commented Anastasia Popova, Deputy General Director for International and Industry Cooperation of Project Office for the Development of Tourism and Hospitality in Moscow.

"Now our task is to demonstrate to our Indian partners all the possibilities of organizing high-value MICE events in Moscow in combination with already proven tourist programs," said Popova. At the Shaping MICE Future Conference, industry experts from Russia and India pronounced statements and speeches on the future of MICE events in these two countries, a presentation of the MICE potential of Moscow was showcased, and an analytical report on the state of the outbound MICE market in India was presented to the visitors.

During the panel discussion, participants assessed the current status and interaction peculiarities with the MICE market in India and developed recommendations for the MICE industry in Moscow during the general brainstorming session. Representatives of the Indian MICE industry participated in B2B negotiations to find new cross-partners in the Moscow business environment and among representatives of the hospitality industry.

Representatives of the MICE industry took part in the event from Moscow. Among them were DMC (Grand Rus, Academservice, Headed Goose, Satguru Travel, Isba Rus, Hug the Bear, Mellenium Group) as well as representatives of other partners interested in the development of MICE cooperation between Russia and India: Global transfers provider i'way and hotels Edge Seligerskaya and Edge Vinogradovo Moscow by Rotana.

"In 2024, we have witnessed a significant surge (more than quadruple) in the demand for transfers by Russians visiting India, both for business and leisure purposes. Muscovites are leading the trend, with 80 per cent of transfer bookings originating from the capital since the beginning of the year. Additionally, we observe a growing interest from Indian tourism agencies in exploring Russia, resulting in a substantial increase in our collaboration," commented Dmitriy Saraykin, co-founder of Global Transfer Provider i'way. The Shaping MICE Future conference allowed the Moscow City Tourism Committee to form a pool of MICE industry representatives in Moscow to prioritize incoming requests for events and clarify India's requirements for business and corporate events to build mutually effective work. Indian colleagues received up-to-date information about Moscow as a safe and attractive MICE destination and were able to find potential partners among representatives of the MICE industry of the Russian capital and were able to present the MICE market in India.

"The event served as a remarkable platform for fostering meaningful dialogue and collaboration within the tourism industry. The event provided us with invaluable opportunities to engage with key stakeholders from the tourism department, as well as tour operators and service providers. The insights gained during the event underscored the Moscow City Tourism Committee's keen interest in the Indian outbound market, and we are optimistic about the promising prospects for Moscow as a destination, particularly in the post-pandemic landscape. We firmly believe that with concerted efforts and strategic initiatives, Moscow has the potential to emerge as a top-choice destination for Indian tourists," said Mudit Mathur, director of Tours Delite India, representing Academ Service - Russia in India. The conference also assessed the solutions to foreign demand for non-standard venues and elements in MICE programs, such as museums, parks, theaters and others. Holding MICE events at offbeat locations, such as the State Historical Museum, the Moscow Planetarium and Khudozhestvenny Cinema, is becoming popular.

This helps to attract conference organizers and creates a unique experience for the participants. Working in this format, many visitors who come to Moscow on a business trip want to return with their families and spend time as regular tourists. (ANI)
