Between 6-13 May 2023, the International Tourism & Hospitality Academic at Sea (ITHAS) team invites you again for a study cruise! The theme is "cultural heritage sites", which means that the programme will give you the opportunity to get an insight into the practical challenges and problems to be solved in the field of cultural and heritage tourism.

In addition to their daily tasks, the student teams will have the opportunity to consult with lecturers from the universities participating in the programme and, of course, with local tourism professionals. The focus will be on brainstorming, teamwork, project tasks, and creating unforgettable experiences in a unique learning environment.

The boat will depart from Split, stopping in Zadar, Šibenik and heading for Kornati National Park.

During the cruise, you will be able to make international relations, explore the Adriatic Sea and have the adventure of a lifetime. A high level of English is essential for the application!

Apply until 5th March!

Candidates will have to attend an interview, after which a maximum of 10 students will be selected.

Successful applicants will receive full board and accomodation on board during the cruise.
