Marino College of Further Education Business with Tourism

Course Aim

The aim of the Business with Tourism course is designed to make a transition to a Level 6, 7 or 8 Business Tourism courses easier. The modules on this course have been selected with this in mind.

Past students have said “progression to NCI, DIT or DCU, was much smoother than expected as many of the modules are tailored to help students to adapt to Higher Education.”

Students on this course enjoy extra curricular activities and events, linked with some of their modules. These events are organised within the college and also outside activities. Students will have opportunities to develop skills such as teamwork, communications and time management.
