Covid-19 is raging, should we choose to study Tourism - Travel?

The Covid-19 pandemic has severely affected the tourism industry and has had a huge impact on the psychology of young people choosing a career. So why is the tourism - travel - hotel industry still "favored" by candidates at the present time?

Under the negative impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic, Tourism - Travel - Hospitality is still a major that students are interested in and choose.

The Covid-19 pandemic will not last another 4 years: According to experts, the Covid-19 pandemic, although raging, will not last another 4 years. In addition, students who choose to study Tourism after graduation, in addition to professional knowledge and professional capacity, will also be equipped with foreign languages, soft skills, types of careers, and technology to have an understanding of new types of tourism that have emerged during and after the pandemic. Looking at it from an objective and positive perspective, Covid-19 is an opportunity for learners, not a challenge or difficulty.

Shortage of human resources after the Covid-19 pandemic: Under the impact of the pandemic, about 50% of the tourism industry's workforce was cut or restructured. Most of the laid-off workers do not want to return to the job they were fired from. This is the reason for the shortage of human resources in the tourism, travel, and hotel industry after the Covid-19 pandemic. Meanwhile, the tourism industry is still a new field of study, attracting the top interest of young people.

Human resources in the tourism, travel and hotel industry will be severely lacking after the Covid-19 pandemic.

The opportunity to practice internships at enterprises has increased, especially paid internships: The shortage of human resources after the pandemic will promote the formation of cooperation channels for practice and internships with tourism, travel, and hotel training establishments... This is a "golden opportunity" for students studying this major to practice and intern in a professional, modern, and paid real-life environment. In particular, students being able to develop professional skills and experience many business models early on helps increase employment opportunities and self-development after graduation.

There are many opportunities for internships and practical experience abroad under the Intership program of the Tourism - Travel - Hotel industry group.

Increase opportunities for internships and practical experience under the Intership program abroad : According to forecasts from businesses in Japan, Taiwan and European countries, the Intership program after the Covid-19 pandemic will explode with 6-month - 1-year programs for students. Many countries have issued open policies to attract foreign labor, including Vietnamese students.
