About London School of Tourism & International Travel Management

The London School of Tourism and International Travel Management (LSTITM), a specialist division of Harold International College of London, exists to educate graduates for the professions that plan, market and run the world's travel industry. Programmes span tour operations, destination management, sustainable tourism, cruise and aviation tourism, cultural heritage travel, event and MICE tourism, and travel marketing — at undergraduate, postgraduate and professional level.

Our starting position is that international travel is a stewardship discipline. Every destination has a community, a heritage and an environment; every itinerary carries a commercial, cultural and ecological footprint. LSTITM curricula are built around WTTC and UNWTO frameworks, and every assessment expects you to reason across destination outcomes, client experience and commercial sustainability.

Faculty are practising DMO directors, tour operators, cruise-line commercial leads, travel marketers and heritage tourism specialists — people who are still shaping the itineraries, campaigns and partnerships they teach. Placements run through London tourism organisations, destination boards, tour operators, cruise commercial teams and international travel firms. Our graduates leave able to cost an itinerary, brief a destination client, run a travel campaign and hold their own in front of a tourism board or operator commercial desk.
