MSc in Global Luxury Hospitality Management
Course Overview
The MSc in Global Luxury Hospitality Management is an LSILHHM Master programme running across a 12 to 18 months full postgraduate route study window, delivered in both on-campus and online formats. The programme delivers a research-informed, executive treatment of global luxury hospitality management inside the five-star and boutique luxury service sector and is aligned with recognised UK and international standards set by bodies such as the Chartered Institute of Marketing (CIM) and the Leading Hotels of the World (LHW). Every module in the MSc in Global Luxury Hospitality Management is designed to be portable across international resort operators and ultra-luxury travel companies, so what you learn in London translates cleanly into international five-star and boutique luxury service settings.

Assessment is applied and evidence-based, mirroring the tasks a executive and consultancy-level team member handles on shift or in a head-office project, with clear progression open into the consultancy, executive and research pathways.
