This Diploma in Tourism and Hospitality Management at Cape Coast Technical University gives you a practical start in one of Ghana's fastest-growing service industries. It is offered by the School of Applied Sciences & Technology and falls under the field of Business & Management Studies. The programme is less competitive to enter than many other tertiary courses, making it an accessible option for SHS leavers.

What the programme covers

Programmes of this kind typically introduce you to the foundations of tourism and hospitality, including how hotels, restaurants, travel agencies and tour operators work. You will build skills in customer service, event organising, marketing, and basic management, all of which are valuable across the sector. Most graduates begin in operational roles and move into supervisory or management positions with experience.

How hard it is to get a place

Entry to this diploma is less competitive than for many other programmes, which means that your WASSCE grades do not need to be exceptionally high to be considered. However, you still need to meet the university's minimum admission requirements.
