BA in Guest Experience Management
Course Overview
The BA in Guest Experience Management is a full honours degree running 36 months (with top-up routes for Higher Diploma holders) focused on guest lifecycle mapping, personalisation and touchpoint orchestration. Delivered by the London School of Hotel and Resort Management (LSHRM), the programme is written to UK hospitality practice referenced by Institute of Customer Service (ICS) and People 1st International, and it draws on live routines from London hotels, boutique properties and international resort operators. Every unit of the BA in Guest Experience Management sits inside a working vocabulary that hiring managers across the UK sector recognise, so your study evidences credible, industry-referenced knowledge rather than generic hospitality theory. The course is delivered by tutors with direct sector experience, and the assessment model is built so that each submission produces a durable artefact you can bring into a live workplace or professional conversation.
By the end of the BA in Guest Experience Management you will step into graduate management schemes across UK hotel groups and resort operators with placement experience behind you. Assessment across the BA in Guest Experience Management is a mix of written work, applied case tasks and structured discussion, and graduates progress into the LSHRM MSc/MA postgraduate portfolio with a coherent record of study behind them. The programme is deliberately shaped to bridge from classroom to floor, so nothing you cover is theoretical without a workplace anchor, and the final review point produces a clear statement of your readiness for the next tier of hospitality practice.
