Surrey student experience
Current students share their thoughts on planning for university, student life and what it’s like to study at the university of surrey., international tourism management at university of surrey, relevance of the course.
Choosing what to study at university can be daunting and confusing as you might not know what you want to do exactly, or you might be overwhelmed by the different options available to you.
When I was in your shoes, I was always looking for all the information I could get, especially if they came from students who had studied or were studying the course. One thing I knew for sure was that I wanted to study something relevant to today’s world and economy and that would allow me to create and access meaningful opportunities in the future.
I can now confirm that studying International Tourism Management (ITM) means learning, analysing and working directly with current societal, environmental and economical issues that arise from tourism, which also represents a significant portion of the global economy (10.3% of global GDP in 2019).
4 reasons to study ITM at Surrey
- Global leaders
The first and probably most evident reason is the high position in national and international rankings of the School of Hospitality and Tourism Management. The School is ranked 1 st in the UK by the Shanghai Ranking’s Global Ranking of Academic Subjects 2022 , the QS World University Ranking and the Complete University Guide 2023 . International rankings see it in 2 nd place according to ShanghaiRankings and 14 th place for the QS World University Ranking.
2. The School of Hospitality and Tourism Management
Unlike other universities that offer the same courses, Surrey offers undergraduate and postgraduate degrees in Hospitality, Tourism and Events Management that are independent from the Surrey Business School. This means that the teaching cohort comes from the field and has relevant experience in academia and industry, and the content is tailored to the Tourism Hospitality and Events industry and the students’ needs.
Within the school, the three departments offer an even more specialised view at each subject for students to gain deeper knowledge of their chosen field of study. Some of my favourite tourism-specific subjects were: Tourism and Society, Air Transport Management, and Crisis Management in Tourism and Transport, which all explored relevant and timely challenges of the industry.
3. Excellent and diverse teaching team
Students are followed and taught by industry professionals and renowned academic researchers that come from a diverse background in terms of culture and experience. This allows an international feel to the programme and creates an inclusive and welcoming environment for all.
Recently, two tourism professors, Professor Xavier Font and Professor Scott Cohen , were awarded lifelong membership of the International Academy for the Study of Tourism . Alongside them, there are many other significant researchers and former industry practitioners with experience in tourism consultancy, hotel management, tourism marketing, events management and so on. Guest lecturers coming from the industry are also very common on the programme as they provide perspectives and insights from experts around the world.
The teaching staff are also very welcoming and considerate of students and are keen to create strong connections with students and provide academic and career advice.
4. Transferability of the subject
The Management aspect of the course ensures students gain key knowledge and skills in business management, by studying general business modules like Accounting and Finance, Service Marketing, Managing Organisations and Human Resources, which give them the fundamentals of business. For this reason, the skills and knowledge gained from the course are very transferrable.
Between the second and third year of study, students can choose to do a Professional Training Year in industry to gain valuable experience and make themselves more employable after graduation. It is common for tourism students, including myself and some of my coursemates, to get placements in Marketing, Product Management and HR in industries that are separate from tourism and still be prepared to work in that professional environment. I worked for a year as a Marketing Executive for a software company, contributing to their wider marketing efforts in the UK and globally, as well as managing a Customer Experience podcast and creating content to promote it across different platforms.
Overall, I believe an International Tourism Management degree can be beneficial in different ways and Surrey is the place to choose because of its excellent teaching team and the well-structured programmes that focus on current issues in Tourism and Transport, like sustainability, international policy development and inclusiveness.

Life at Surrey
Space tourists at risk of DNA damage and cancer
By Isobel Williams via SWNS
Space tourists may be at risk of DNA damage and cancer, a new study has found.
Experts are urging space tour operators of the future such as Virgin Galactic to protect their passengers and crews from the risks of space weather radiation exposure.
The Earth’s atmosphere and magnetic field protect people on the ground from exposure to unpredictable surges of electrically charged particles coming from the sun.
However, there can be dramatic increases in potential radiation exposure at higher altitudes, such as those envisaged for space tourist flights.
The experts from the University of Surrey say that space weather cannot yet be predicted and can lead to health risks such as damage to DNA, and it could lead to cancer.
They note that, despite this, space tourists currently receive little information and few warnings.
The study, published in Space Policy , makes a series of recommendations to help minimize the negative side effects of space travel.
Lead author Chris Rees, a research student at Surrey Space Centre, said: “Although space tourism is very niche, it will quickly grow as an industry.
“With increased flights, more people could be impacted by cosmic radiation exposure, especially during rapid changes in space weather.
“We’re recommending how regulators and industry should work together to keep people safe without unnecessarily holding back innovation.”
These recommendations include; regulatory bodies ensuring regulations are practical, and effective and reflect technological advances; introduction of international standards to ensure consistency; clear safety information; and close monitoring of cosmic radiation during short space flights.
Co-author John Catchpole, a space law expert at Foot Anstey LLP, added: “International action is needed by regulators, but meanwhile, the early movers in the sector, like Virgin Galactic and Blue Origin, need to watch themselves and their passengers.
“The principles of informed consent mean stronger warnings and clearer information may be required.”
The post Space tourists at risk of DNA damage and cancer appeared first on Talker .
Simulated microgravity effects cause marked changes in gene expression rhythms in humans, study finds
Simulated effects of microgravity, created by 60 days of constant bed rest, severely disrupts rhythmic gene expression in humans, according to a new study from the University of Surrey.
Astronauts exposed to microgravity experience changes to physiology, including immune suppression, increased inflammation, and reduced muscle mass and bone density. With the increase in human spaceflight, it is important to understand changes in the molecular mechanisms underlying these changes.
Lead author Professor Simon Archer, Professor of Molecular Biology of Sleep at the University of Surrey, said:
"This unique study represents the largest longitudinal dataset of time series gene expression in humans. Human gene expression varies rhythmically over the 24-hour day, and it is important to collect time series data rather than from just single time points to get a full picture of what occurs in the body when exposed to simulated microgravity. It also raises questions about the impact of constant bed rest on our bodies as we have identified a dramatic effect on the temporal organisation of human gene expression."
In a study coordinated by the European Space Agency at the MEDES space clinic in Toulouse, 20 men completed a 90-day protocol consisting of two weeks of baseline before 60 days of constant bed rest at a -six-degree head-down tilt angle to simulate the effects of microgravity experienced by astronauts. The protocol concluded with two weeks of recovery.
The research team analysed gene expression over a 24-hour time series during two days in baseline, three days in bed rest, and once in recovery. The results showed that 91 per cent of gene expression was affected by the protocol, with major disruption to the number, timing, and amplitude of rhythmic genes, which display changes in their mRNA every 24 hours. Disrupted gene expression is associated with protein translation, immune and inflammatory processes, and decreased muscle function. During the recovery period, disruption to muscle function was restored; however, lasting effects were identified with protein translation.
Senior author Professor Derk-Jan Dijk, Professor of Sleep and Physiology and Director of the Surrey Sleep Research Centre, said:
"Space travel was once thought to be unachievable; however, the growth of the space industry means it is now a real possibility. A lot remains unknown about the impact of microgravity on the body, and it is important we know more about this before we start 'holidaying' in space. Building on what we have found, the second part of our study, using the same cohort of men, will investigate the impact microgravity has on sleep, circadian rhythms and hormones of individuals."
Professor Keith Ryden, Professor of Space Engineering and Director of the Surrey Space Centre, said:
"Human spaceflight is very much on the agenda again with astronauts soon returning to the moon via NASA's Artemis project alongside the growth of space tourism. In addition, new plans are in place for a UK astronaut going to the ISS in 2025 via the UKSA Axiom programme. It is great to see that with this new publication, the University of Surrey, well-known for its space research, is laying foundations for how to better manage the impact of the space environment on space travellers and ensure their safety."
This study was published in the journal iScience and received funding from the BBSRC.
