Description

The main objective of the course is to promote innovation in the design of facilities for leisure and tourism at a stage characterized by strong changes in the sector. New types of tourism have emerged due to the emergence of new communications and transport technologies in an increasingly globalized world. In turn, new generations of tourists with more sophisticated consumption habits, makes the design of traditional facilities are often obsolete today.

It is for this reason that the subject develops a methodology to design and implement facilities that adapt to new trends based on experimentation and Design Thinking.

The classroom (physical or virtual) is a safe space, free of sexist, racist, homophobic, transphobic and discriminatory attitudes, either towards students or teachers. We trust that together we can create a safe space where we can make mistakes and learn without having to suffer the prejudices of others.

Learning outcomes

Identify products related to leisure and/or wellness and develop innovative business models.
