About the course

From weddings and conferences to restaurants and catering – our Hotel Management degree can take you all over the world.

　　The two-year accelerated Hotel Management degree is a one of a kind course in the UK. The course combines hotel experience in Wivenhoe House , a 4 country house hotel on Essex’s Colchester campus, with industry-relevant business management lectures to prepare you to become a successful manager.

　　With a student experience unlike any other, it may come as no surprise that the Edge Hotel School is ranked in the top 10 in the UK for overall positivity in our subject area (National Student Survey 2023, English Broad Discipline Institutions).

　　The BA Hotel Management is only available to students who do not require a VISA to study in the UK. Our three-year BA Hospitality Management has very similar course content, but is structured differently to allow applications from student of any fee status or VISA requirement.

　　With around 45 weeks of study per year and up to six weeks of annual holiday you will be able to fast-track your degree and start your career sooner. Scholarships - View all scholarships Internships
