This course offers a hands-on opportunity for bachelor students to
experience the practice of qualitative research. It will address the
nature of qualitative research in hospitality, with ample opportunities
to discuss the implications of the choices made in designing,
implementing and reporting on the findings of a ‘mock’ or ‘real’
project. It is designed to help students to develop skills to collect
qualitative data during dissertation projects. In this module, it is
ensured that the learning activities include a global/international
perspective. The Facilitator(s) infuses international elements into the
learning content and international resources are used in the module
readings. The teaching and learning methods used are appropriate to a
culturally diverse student population.

acquired the responsibility and autonomy to:
a) Manage a qualitative research project and the team’s performance;
b) Be responsible for own study and working within a project;
c) Ensure the exercising of ethical and social principles within the
hospitality industry;
