This is the ITS' second MQF level 7 pro- gramme, following the launch of the MBA in International Hospitality Management early on this year. The MA in Heritage Interpretation aims at offering the necessary knowledge, skills and competencies on Heritage Interpretation (HI) both at local and international level. This programme offers tailor-made learning to those who already work within the Culture and Heritage Tourism industry but also to those who aspire to specialise in the interpre- tation of specific sites and artefacts. The course carries four semesters and will be held on a part-time evening basis. Applications for both the MBA in Interna- tional Hospitality Management and the MA in Heritage Interpretation are now open for the cohort starting in February 2020.
