Details

The Diploma in Ecotourism Management at TUT (offered only at Mbombela campus) trains students in the planning, management, and sustainable development of ecotourism products and destinations in South Africa's rich biodiversity and wildlife environments. Mpumalanga's proximity to Kruger National Park and the greater Lowveld ecosystem makes it an ideal base for ecotourism education, and the programme connects students directly with eco-lodges, private game reserves, and conservation areas. Students develop skills in guide services, nature interpretation, eco-lodge management, tourism planning, and conservation-based enterprise development. South Africa's ecotourism sector generates billions in foreign exchange and community income annually.
