  • In an attempt to analyze tourism or to formulate a conceptual framework, we often come across partial images of the tourism phenomenon, without being able to articulate a cohesive and simple discourse about what really moves, or moves, this activity, whose phenomenon It is also framed that the handicap of its analysis can oscillate between economic or social prevalence. The Introduction to Tourism UC will allow students to know some structural and operational aspects of tourism, taking into account the need to define concepts, terminologies and practical knowledge, useful for the tourism manager and professional.
