Outstanding scholarship opportunity awaits two students from the Croatian diaspora

Edward Bernays University College in Zagreb is offering two scholarships for its Experience Management in Tourism graduate study program. This two-year program in Zagreb will allow students to study in Croatia and equip themselves for a career in tourism.

Tourism in Croatia offers endless opportunities and incredible potential to grow and generate revenues. Bernays’ graduate program will engage students on a personal level and develop their creative ability to draw on Croatia’s unique cultural treasures. This approach is an extremely strong feature of the program, since it is Croatia’s charm that evokes tourists’ emotions, values ​​and visions. 

Exactly what vacation memories are made of.

With ever changing trends and lifestyles, consumer behavior is the force that determines the theoretical foundation of the program which balances two factors:  the practical needs of the actual tourism sector and optimal consumer experience. During their studies, returnees will have the opportunity to hone their knowledge of Croatia as a competitive tourist brand, become more acquainted with creativity in tourism and gain the skills that will enable them to strategically approach the development of a destination.
